The answer is going to be x=22
We have been given that the take home pay is $1500 and 22% is withheld as taxes.
Let us assume that the gross pay is x dollars. Therefore, take home pay must be 78% of x because 22% of the pay is withheld as taxes, so you get to take home only 78% of the gross pay.
Since we have been given that take home pay is $1500 and it is 78% of the total gross pay. Therefore, we can set up an equation:

Therefore, gross pay is $1923.08
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6/8 is the same as 3/4;
there are 3 lots of 1/4 in 3/4
Answer:
C. 45 and 141 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 93 seconds
Standard deviation = 16 seconds
99.7% of running times are approximately between:
By the Empirical rule, within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so between 3 standard deviations below the mean and 3 standard deviations above the mean
3 stnadard deviations below the mean
93 - 3*16 = 45 seconds
3 standard deviations above the mean
93 + 3*16 = 141 seconds
The correct answer is:
C. 45 and 141 seconds
Answer:
2-2/3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 + 2/3 + 1-3/4 = 1/4 + 2/3 + 7/4. Use common is 12, so we get 3+8+21/12 = 32/12. Simplify equal 8/3 or 2-2/3 hours!
