➷The answer is 18 hours.

Explanation: If you look carefully, you can see that the answer is the second condition as well. If one pipe did half, then the other pipe took over and that took 18 hours, that means that it equals one pipe filling the pool continuously by itself. :)

John’s gross pay for the week is $500. He pays 1.45 percent in Medicare tax, 6.2 percent in Social Security tax, 2 percent in st
olchik [2.2K]
Gross pay = 500

deductions :
medicare tax : 0.0145(500) = 7.25
S.S tax : 0.062(500) = 31.00
sales tax : 0.02(500) = 10.00
income tax : 0.2(500) = 100
insurance = 20
total deductions : 7.25 + 31 + 10 + 100 + 20 = 168.25

gross pay - deductions = net pay
500 - 168.25 = net pay
331.75 = net pay <===

Answer:

x = ± \sqrt{8} - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 4x = 4

to complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 4 + 4

(x + 2)² = 8 ( take square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt{8} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = ± \sqrt{8} - 2

A.)List the 4 steps outlined in the lesson on solving equations.
aleksley [76]
1.) Solve for x:
5 x + 7 = 3 x + 21

Subtract 3 x from both sides:
(5 x - 3 x) + 7 = (3 x - 3 x) + 21

5 x - 3 x = 2 x:
2 x + 7 = (3 x - 3 x) + 21

3 x - 3 x = 0:
2 x + 7 = 21

Subtract 7 from both sides:
2 x + (7 - 7) = 21 - 7

7 - 7 = 0:
2 x = 21 - 7

21 - 7 = 14:
2 x = 14

Divide both sides of 2 x = 14 by 2:
(2 x)/2 = 14/2

2/2 = 1:
x = 14/2

The gcd of 14 and 2 is 2, so 14/2 = (2×7)/(2×1) = 2/2×7 = 7:
Answer:  x = 7

____________________________________________________________

2.)  Solve for x:
3 x - 2 (5 - x) = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)

-2 (5 - x) = 2 x - 10:
2 x - 10 + 3 x = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)

Grouping like terms, 3 x + 2 x - 10 = (3 x + 2 x) - 10:
(3 x + 2 x) - 10 = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)

3 x + 2 x = 5 x:
5 x - 10 = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)

-3 (x - 10) = 30 - 3 x:
5 x - 10 = 30 - 3 x + 3 x

3 x - 3 x = 0:
5 x - 10 = 30

Add 10 to both sides:
5 x + (10 - 10) = 10 + 30

10 - 10 = 0:
5 x = 30 + 10

30 + 10 = 40:
5 x = 40

Divide both sides of 5 x = 40 by 5:
(5 x)/5 = 40/5

5/5 = 1:
x = 40/5

The gcd of 40 and 5 is 5, so 40/5 = (5×8)/(5×1) = 5/5×8 = 8:

<span>Answer: x = 8

_________________________________________________________

3.) Solve for x:</span>
5 (x + 1) = 3 (2 x + 3) + 5

3 (2 x + 3) = 6 x + 9:
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + 9 + 5

Grouping like terms, 6 x + 5 + 9 = 6 x + (9 + 5):
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + (9 + 5)

9 + 5 = 14:
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + 14

Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 5 = 6 x + 14

Subtract 6 x from both sides:
(5 x - 6 x) + 5 = (6 x - 6 x) + 14

5 x - 6 x = -x:
-x + 5 = (6 x - 6 x) + 14

6 x - 6 x = 0:
5 - x = 14

Subtract 5 from both sides:
(5 - 5) - x = 14 - 5

5 - 5 = 0:
-x = 14 - 5

14 - 5 = 9:
-x = 9

Multiply both sides of -x = 9 by -1:
(-x)/(-1) = -9
(-1)/(-1) = 1:

<span>Answer: x = -9</span>
