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:
$189
Step-by-step explanation:
35% of 140 = 49
140 + 149 = 189
Difference of a number and 17: x - 17
eight times that = 8(x - 17)
8(x - 17) = 30
divide both sides by 8
x - 17 = 30/8
x = 30/8 + 17 which is 20.75

Answer:
y = three-halves x minus 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3x from both sides of the original equation.
-2y = -3x +6
Divide by -2
y = 3/2x -3
