Answer:

x=45

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for x, you would need to get the variable by itself. First, we would divide 1/3 on both sides.

10 = 1/3 (x - 15)

10 / (1/3) = (x - 15)

30 = x - 15

Then we would add 15 to both sides.

45 = x

Then, we can check our work by plugging the value of x into the original equation.

10 = 1/3 (x - 15)

10 = 1/3 (30)

10=10

The correct answer is x = 45

$(9\sin2x+9\cos2x)^2=81$

Taking the square root of both sides gives two possible cases,

$9\sin2x+9\cos2x=9\implies\sin2x+\cos2x=1$

$9\sin2x+9\cos2x=-9\implies\sin2x+\cos2x=-1$

Recall that

$\sin(\alpha\pm\beta)=\sin\alpha\cos\beta\pm\cos\alpha\sin\beta$

If $\alpha=2x$ and $\beta=\dfrac\pi4$ , we have

$\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=\dfrac{\sin2x+\cos2x}{\sqrt2}$

so in the equations above, we can write

$\sin2x+\cos2x=\sqrt2\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=\pm1$

Then in the first case,

$\sqrt2\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=1\implies\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=\dfrac1{\sqrt2}$

$\implies2x+\dfrac\pi4=\dfrac\pi4+2n\pi\text{ or }\dfrac{3\pi}4+2n\pi$

(where $n$ is any integer)

$\implies2x=2n\pi\text{ or }\dfrac\pi2+2n\pi$

$\implies x=n\pi\text{ or }\dfrac\pi4+n\pi$

and in the second,

$\sqrt2\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=-1\implies\sin\left(2x+\dfrac\pi4\right)=-\dfrac1{\sqrt2}$

$\implies2x+\dfrac\pi4=-\dfrac\pi4+2n\pi\text{ or }-\dfrac{3\pi}4+2n\pi$

$\implies2x=-\dfrac\pi2+2n\pi\text{ or }-\pi+2n\pi$

$\implies x=-\dfrac\pi4+n\pi\text{ or }-\dfrac\pi2+n\pi$

Then the solutions that fall in the interval $[0,2\pi)$ are

$x=0,\dfrac\pi4,\dfrac\pi2,\dfrac{3\pi}4,\pi,\dfrac{5\pi}4,\dfrac{3\pi}2,\dfrac{7\pi}4$

Elias received a W-2 showing total compensations of $36,038. What is the amount of FICA tax he paid for the year? A) $522.55 B)

e-lub [12.9K]

FICA or Federal Insurance Contributions Act is composed of social security tax and medicare tax. Hence, we need to add these taxes to get the FICA tax.Social Security Tax is = 6.2%Medicare Tax is = 1.45%
Social Security Tax = 36,038*.062 = 2,234.356 Medicare Tax = 36,038*.0145 = 522.552
2,234.356 + 522.552 = 2,756.907 or 2,756.91
Therefore, Elias paid B.) 2,756.91 as FICA tax for the year.
