Answer:

Salary before pay raise = 43,478.26 (approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Janice new salary = 45,000

Pay raise = 3.5% = 0.035

Let the previous pay be x

Now according to given conditions:

0.035* x = 45,000 - x

Adding x on both sides we get:

0.035 x + x =  45,000 - x + x

1.035x =  45,000

Dividing both sides by 1.035 we get:

1.035/1.035 x =  45,000/1.035

x = 43,478.26

So, the salary before pay raise was 43,478 approx

proof:

Raise in salart = 3.5% of 43,478.26 = 1,521.74

New salary = old salary + raise in salary

New salary = 43,478.26 + 1,521.74

New salary = 45,000

Hence proved.

I hope it will help you!

I'm assuming you mean a 3.5 percent pay rise.

So, Janice current salary is 103.5% of her previous salary:

\dfrac{103.5}{100}x=45000 \iff x = \dfrac{45000\cdot 100}{103.5}=43478.26

Please help I'm almost done the test and need this and one other question ​

Answer:

z=68

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula 180\times(n-2) to find the sum of the angles in a polygon, given <em>n</em> sides. This formula tells us the angles of this pentagon must add to 540 (180\times(5-2)=540).

So, we can setup an equation:

70+2z+11+119+z+2z=540

Solve for z:

200+5z=540 Combine like terms

5z=340 Subtract 200

z=68 Divide by 5

Therefore, the value of z = 68.
