iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$360.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Phan's net pay would be equal to the gross wage he receives minus the deductions:

Gross wage= $487.12

Federal withholding taxes= $49

Social security taxes= $487.12*6.2%= $30.2

Medicare taxes= $487.12*1.45%= $7.06

Health insurance= $28.74

Union dues= $12

Net pay= $487.12-$49-$30.2-$7.06-$28.74-$12

Net pay= $360.12

According to this, Phan's net pay is $360.12.

Write the equation of the line that satisfies the following conditions:
eduard

Answer:

a. y=-x+-5

b. y=\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve part a we have the slope of the line and a point, so we use the point-slope equation

y=m(x-x_{1})+y_{1}

where m is the slope: m=-1, and (x_{1},y_{1}) is the point, so in this case the point is (0,-5) thus x_{1}=0 and y_{1}=-5.Thus the equation is:

y=-1(x-0)+(-5)

y=-x+-5

And for part b we have two points. With the two points we can find the slope and then use the point-slope equation again.

To find the slope we use:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

for the points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}). Since we have the poits: (1,3) and (-2,-1)

x_{1}=1\\y_{1}=3\\x_{2}=-2\\y_{2}=-1

Thus, the slope:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{-1-3}{-2-1}

m=\frac{-4}{-3}

m=\frac{4}{3}

and now using the point-slope equation:

y=m(x-x_{1})+y_{1}

y=\frac{4}{3}(x-1)+3\\y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{4}{3} +3\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}
