Answer:

doctorate salary:  d = $71,000

bachelor salary:     b = $55,000

Step-by-step explanation:

doctorate salary:  d

bachelor salary:     b

relationship between b and d:  d = 2b - $39,000

Unfortunately, your "1 + 126,000" could not be correct.  I'm going to assume that the total of the two salaries is $126,000.  If that's the case, then:

bachelor salary + (2 times bachelor salary less $39,000) = $126,000.  In symbols,

b + 2b - $39,000 = $126,000

Consolidating the 'b' terms results in 3b - $39,000 = $126,000, and so:

3b = $126,000 + $39,000 = $165,000

Dividing both sides by 3 yields the bachelor salary:  b = $55,000

Then the doctoral salary is 2b - $39,000 = 2($55,000) - $39,000, or $71,000.

Check:  Does b + (2b - $39,000) = $126,000?  Yes.

Then the doctoral salary is d = $103,000, and the bachelor salary $29,000

erik [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 10² + 7² = x²

 149 = x²

 x = √149

2. x² + 19² = 21²

 x² = 21² -  19² = 80

 x = √80 = 4√5

3. x² + 16² = 27²

 x² = 27² - 16² = 473

 x = √473

4. 5.3² + 12.8² = x²

 191.93 = x²

 x = √191.93

5. 9² + 20² = x²

 481 = x²

 x = √481

6. 31 = x + 2√(19²-17²) = x + 2·6√2 = x + 12√2

 x = 31 - 12√2

Parker reviews his homework before he turns it in. When he sees the equation 1.02 divided by 0.6= 0.17, he knows it is wrong. He
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The result of the division of a number by a fraction is larger than the fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,we note that value Parker divided by 0.6. =1.02

Written down result of the division = 1.02/0.6 = 0.17

However, since the numerator is 1.02, then the result of dividing it by a fraction should yield a higher number instead of 0.17

Therefore we check as follows

1.02/0.6 = 1.7

The error is apparently due to dividing 1.02 by 6 rather than 0.6
