15 over 76,894 and x over 100. You cross multiply15 with 100 which gives you 1500 and divide by the number you have left, 76,894. You get 0.0195073738. Make sure you round!

Answer:

The last year population was 66864.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the population of a town grew 15% up to 76,894.

Let the last year population be x.

The population increased by 15% up to 76894.

x+\frac{15}{100}x=76894

\frac{100x+15x}{100}=76894

\frac{115x}{100}=76894

115x=7689400

x=66864.3478

x\approx 66864

Therefore, the last year population was 66864.

Clarice Sloan is a shift supervisor for Ace
Igoryamba

The net pay is the amount left after taxes and deductions have been removed from the gross pay.

Her monthly gross pay is: $4111.93

The deductions are:

\mathbf{FIT = \$102}

\mathbf{SIT = 3.2\%}

\mathbf{CIT = 1.8\%}

Let her gross pay be x.

So, we have:

\mathbf{Net = x - FIT - x \times SIT - x \times CIT}

So, we have:

\mathbf{3804.33 = x - 102 - x \times 3.2\%- x \times 1.8\%}

Express percentage as decimals

\mathbf{3804.33 = x - 102 - x \times 0.032- x \times 0.018}

\mathbf{3804.33 = x - 102 - 0.032x -  0.018x}

Add 102 to both sides

\mathbf{3906.33 = x - 0.032x -  0.018x}

\mathbf{3906.33 = 0.95x}

Divide both sides by 0.95

\mathbf{4111.93 = x}

Rewrite as:

\mathbf{x = 4111.93 }

Hence, her monthly gross pay is: $4111.93
