If we calculate the net take home pay and we assume the employer withheld federal income tax (wage-bracket, married, 2 <span>allowances), social security taxes, and state income tax (2%)
</span>
Married at least $500 but not more than $510 $21
Social Security at 4.2% $21
State income tax at 2% $10
Total taxes: $52

Total net take-home pay: $598

Find the minimum value if f(x) = xe^x over [-2,0]

SashulF [63]

Given function:

$f(x)=xe^x$

The minimum value of the function can be found by setting the first derivative of the function to zero.

$f^{\prime}(x)=xe^x+e^x$ $\begin{gathered} xe^x+e^x\text{ = 0} \\ e^x(x\text{ + 1) = 0} \end{gathered}$

Solving for x:

$\begin{gathered} x\text{ + 1 = 0} \\ x\text{ = -1} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} e^x\text{ = 0} \\ \text{Does not exist} \end{gathered}$

Substituting the value of x into the original function:

$\begin{gathered} f(x=1)=-1\times e^{^{-1}}_{} \\ =\text{ -}0.368 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the minimum value in the given range is (-1, -0.368)

5/4 to 3/8 as a percent change

Digiron [165]

Well, what's the diffrence from 5/4 to 3/8?

$\bf \cfrac{5}{4}-\cfrac{3}{8}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{LCD is 8 clearly}}{\implies }\qquad \cfrac{10-3}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{8}$

so, if we take 5/4 to be the 100%, what is 7/8 off of it in percentage anyway?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{5}{4}&100\\\\
\frac{7}{8}&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }{\frac{7}{8}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{4}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{40}{28}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{28\cdot 100}{40}$
