We have been given that the take home pay is $1500 and 22% is withheld as taxes.
Let us assume that the gross pay is x dollars. Therefore, take home pay must be 78% of x because 22% of the pay is withheld as taxes, so you get to take home only 78% of the gross pay.
Since we have been given that take home pay is $1500 and it is 78% of the total gross pay. Therefore, we can set up an equation:
Therefore, gross pay is $1923.08
Answer:
the question is incorrect.
Answer:
141.37
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x = 2 and y = -4
x + 2y = -6
x = -6-2y
Putting this in value of x in
6x + 2y = 4
6(-6-2y) + 2y = 4
-36-12y+2y = 4
-10y = 4+36
y = 40/(-10)
y = -4
Now putting this value of y in
x + 2y = -6
x + 2(-4) = -6
x -8 = -6
x = -6+8
x = 2
Therefore x = 2 and y = -4
If we put these values we can check this
x + 2y = -6
2 + 2(-4) = -6
2 -8 = -6
-6 = -6
