Answer:
x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
36-2x=-x+2
add x to both sides and subtract 36 from both sides
-x=-34
x=34
X=3 falls in the third piecewise function,
f(x)=x+1
f(3)=3+1=4
Given:
Let t = number of hours worked
Let p = money in the paycheck
And the relationship between the two variables varies DIRECTLY, thus they are equated with one another.
Well anyway, you can write this simple equation for their relationship:
16t=124p
Then you derive if you want to get the number of hours or the amount paid:
1) 16t/16= 124p
t = 124p/16
t=7.75p
or
2) 124p=16t
124p/124= 16t/124
p = 0.129t
5500 x 6% = 330
330 x 9 = 2970
So your answer would be 2970. Hope this helps!
9 weeks because 12x9= 108 and 108 is more than Malik need to repay but 108-12=96 less than needed so it is 9 weeks
