The answer to this is f(x) = (3/2)x - 2.
Part A)
Multiply the amount he earned by 8.5%
8.5% written as a decimal is 0.085.
75,000 x 0.085 = $6,375
Part B)
Subtract the amount of tax from his earnings:
75,000 - 6,375 = $68,625
Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
(Triangle ABC is isosceles)
(base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent)
(In triangle CMB, angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees)
(triangle sum theorem)
(30-60-90 triangle CMB)
(sides opposite congruent angles in a triangle are congruent)
(segment addition postulate)
<span>(2) y is the total cost, x is the number of months of service, $40 is the installation fee, and $90 is the service charge per month.</span>
y = 40 + 90x
y = total cost
x = number of months of service
40 = one time installation fee
90 = monthly service charge.
Let us assume that the number of months of service is 10 months. then, the total cost would be:
y = 40 + 90(10)
y = 40 + 900
y = 940
