Answer:

Let us assume that the pay rate per hour = x

no. of hours worked = n

Gross earnings = x*n

Federal taxes = 18% of gross earnings

= 0.18(x*n)

State taxes = 4% of gross earnings

= 0.04(x*n)

Social security deduction = 7.05% of gross earnings

= 0.0705(x*n)

Total deductions = Federal taxes + State taxes +SSD

= 0.18(x*n) + 0.04(x*n) + 0.0705(x*n)

= 0.2905(x*n)

Net pay = Gross earnings - Total Deduction

Net pay = x*n - 0.2905(x*n)

Net pay = 0.7095(x*n)

Rachel has 30 pounds of a mixture of candy that sells for $1.00/lb. If lollipops sell for $0.95/lb and caramel candies sell for
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Twenty Pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation #1:

30lbs x Mix Price = (Lollipop Lbs  x 0.95)  + (Caramel Lbs X 1.10)

Equation #2:

Lollipops Lbs + Caramel Lbs = 30 Lbs

<em>Rearrange expressions to solve for different variables</em>

EQ1:   Caramel Lbs = (30 - .95 Lollipop Lbs)/ 1.10      NOTE: (mix price = 1.00)

EQ2:  Lollipop Lbs = 30 - Caramel Lbs

<em>Substitute formula 1 into formula 2</em>

Lollipop Lbs = 30 - [(30 - .95 Lollipop Lbs)/1.10]

<em>Distribute divisor</em>

Lollipop Lbs  = 30 - 27.2727 + .8636 Lollipop Lbs

<em>Collect terms</em>

Lollipop Lbs  =  2.7273 + .8636 Lollipop Lbs

<em>Remove .8336 Lollipops from both sides of the equation</em>

.1364 Lollipop Lbs = 2.7273

<em>Divide both sides by .1364  </em> (Answer is  19.9949 which rounds to 20)

Lollipop Lbs =  20

PROOF:

30 = (20 x 0.95) + (10 x 1.10)

30 = 19 + 11

30 = 30   TRUE!

PLEASE SOLVE THIS :(<br>​
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

10.5 %

<u>Skills needed: Financial Math Essentials</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, before getting started, let's assume the price of the product is x. This variable will be used a lot throughout the problem (x).

2) Marking a price above means increasing the price in order to make money off of the purchased product. When raising something by y percent, the new price would be x + \frac{y}{100}*x.

---> In this case, the price increased by \textbf{30} percent.

This means that it would be: x+\frac{30}{100}x = x+0.3x=1.3x

New price is: 1.3x

3) The shopkeeper is then offering a \textbf{15} percent discount off of this marked price. When offering a b percent discount price, the new price (with discount), expressed algebraically is: a-\frac{b}{100}a

---> the expression above simplifies to (1-\frac{b}{100})a

In this case, a=1.3x, b=15

---> (1-\frac{15}{100})*1.3x = (1-0.15)*1.3x=0.85*1.3x=1.105x

This means that x, with discount, has been raised \textbf{10.5 percent}.

10.5 % is the profit percent

(The profit percent being the final marked up price - purchased price)
