Answer:
y = 0.0765x
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that:
y is the total taxes paid.
x is the total wages earned.
The total taxes paid is a function of the total wages earned.
For wages less than the maximum taxable wage base, Social Security contributions (including those for Medicare) by employees are 7.65% of the employee's wages.
So 7.65% of the total wages earned are paid in taxes. We write the percentage as a decimal, so 7.65/100 = 0.0765
So the answer for a) is:
y = 0.0765x
The original number to the nearest tenth is 23.8

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
39-5= 34, 34-5= 29, 29-5= 24
subtracting term by term
(3.1x - 4.3x ) + (2.8z - (- 1.2z ) )
= - 1.2x + (2.8z + 1.2z ) = - 1.2x + 5z
