If x represents the number of hours Shelton worked, then the expression 10.25x shows how much Shelton is paid for these x hours ($10.25 for an hour).

After taxes, social security, and his health care plan were deducted he earned

10.25x - 0.21(10.25x).

This means that taxes, social security, and his health care plan form 21% (0.21 as decimal) from 10.25x.

Answer: 21%

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

transformed function, g (x) = (1/5)(-x)+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming

f (x) = -x           (and not f(x)-=x)

To compress/expand, we apply

g (x) = a*f(bx-k)+h

where

a=vertical stretch factor, a= 1/5 for compression (to stretch 5 times, a=5)

b=horizontal compression factor (=1 i this case)

h=vertical translation (=7)

k=horizontal translation (=0)

So the transformed function,

g (x) = (1/5)(-x)+7
