Step-by-step explanation:
what's his goal I will give answer in comments after you tell me
First, you do the distributive property on:
4(2n+3)
You would get
8n+12
Then add the original part of the equation in (4n)
4n+8n+12
Combine like terms
12n+12 is the answer
Assuming John does not get premium pay for hours over 40, his pay will be ...
... 43 hours × $9.00 = $387
... - 6.2% × $387 = $23.99
... - 1.45% × $387 = $5.61
... - $15.00
... - 5% × $387 = $19.35
... - 10% × ($387 -19.35) = $36.77
... = $286.28 . . . . net pay after all the deductions
235/4 equals 58.75
Hope this helps!
4 / 0.80 = 12 / x...cross multiply
4x = 0.80 * 12
4x = 9.6
x = 9.6 / 4
x = 2.4.....12 apples cost $ 2.40
