Answer:

Maxine has $1,651.20 remaining after state income tax is deducted from her paycheck.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maxine earns $ 21.50 an hour and works 40 hours per week, each week she earns a total of $ 860 (40 x 21.5). Since she collects every 2 weeks, her pre-tax salary is $ 1,720 (860 x 2). But the state discounts an income tax of 4%, with which the money that she effectively receives every two weeks is $ 1,651.20 (1720 - (1720 x 0.04).

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y=−2 that passes through the point (4, −2).
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 2 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A perpendicular line is therefore a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (4, - 2 ) with x- coordinate 4 , thus

x = 4 ← equation of perpendicular line

A) because when they are equal it means that their y has the same value, which means their intersection point.


B) You should take all integers from (-2, 2) which are: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 and put them one by one in the example:
x = -2    
    y1 = 4^-(-2) = 4^2 = 16 
    y2 = 2^(-(-2) + 1) = 2^(2+1) = 2^3 = 8
y1 ≠ y2      =>      so x=-2 isn't our answer
-------------------------------------------------------
x = -1
    y1 = 4^-(-1) = 4^1 = 4 
    y2 = 2^(-(-1) + 1) = 2^(1+1) = 2^2 = 4
y1 = y2      =>       so our answer will be x = -1
-------------------------------------------------------
x = 0
    y1 = 4^-(0) = 4^0 = 1 
    y2 = 2^(-(0) + 1) = 2^(0+1) = 2^1 = 2
y1 ≠ y2      =>      so x=0 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 1 
    y1 = 4^-(1) = 4^(-1) = 1/4 
    y2 = 2^(-(1) + 1) = 2^(-1+1) = 2^0 = 1
y1 ≠ y2      =>      so x=1 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 2 
    y1 = 4^-(2) = 4^(-2) = 1/16 
    y2 = 2^(-(2) + 1) = 2^(-2+1) = 2^(-1) = 1/2
y1 ≠ y2      =>      so x=2 isn't our answer

Which means that our final answer is: x=-1


C) You should draw both graphics, and their intersection point (x) will be the answer.


I hope it helped.

Suppose systolic blood pressure of 17 year female is approximately distributed with a mean of 118mmHg and a standard deviation o
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a) 0.383

b) 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculate each z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z₁ = (112 − 118) / 12 = -0.5

z₂ = (124 − 118) / 12 = 0.5

Use a calculator or z-score table to find the probability.

P(-0.5 < Z < 0.5) = 0.6915 − 0.3085 = 0.383

b) 0.383 × 16 ≈ 6.  So the expected proportion would be 6/16 = 0.375.

Select the correct answer. Vector u has its initial point at (-7, 2) and its terminal point at (11, -5). Vector v has a directio
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

vector u=<(11-(-7),(-5-2)>=<18,-7>

as direction is opposite to u

so vector v=-3(18,-7)=(-54,21)

Pleaseeee helpppp !!!!!!! Mark Brianliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
andriy [413]

Answer:

LP = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

In ΔLPN,

LQ = 6, LM = 11 and MN = 22

We need to find the length of LP.

As QM ║PN, let QP = x

\dfrac{LQ}{LP}=\dfrac{LM}{LN}\\\\\dfrac{6}{6+x}=\dfrac{11}{11+22}\\\\\dfrac{6}{6+x}=\dfrac{11}{33}\\\\198=66+11x\\\\198-66=11x\\\\132=11x\\\\x=12

LP = 6+x

= 6+ 12

= 18

Hence, the length of LP is 18.
