Answer:
The equation is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Caroline was thinking of a number.
We are going to call this number x.
Caroline halves the number and gets 7.3.
To find half of a number, we multiply by 1/2. So


10=2x+3,50 |-3,50
6,50=2x |:2
3,25=x
10=2x+7 |-7
3=2x |:2
1,5=x
You didnt say how many bakery she wants to buy, so i did one inequality for 1 bakery anderen for the maximum of 2.
First you need to solve for how much you lose for each individual tax, so 420x.0765 will give you how much money you lose to social security tax, then do the same for the other types and add them together, the value will give you the amount you have lost, so taking the total (420) minus the amount lost you will have the amount that you can "take home"
So 420-((420x.0765)+(420x.22)+(420x.0595)) = amount still in your pocket
