Answer: x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5(x-2)=1/10(x+6)
1/5x -2/5=1/10x + 6/10
+2/5 +2/5
1/5x =1/10x + 1
-1/10 -1/10
1/10x= 1 divide both sides by 1/10
x= 10

Explanation:
Here, we want to get the percentage of the gross pay is the take-home pay
Mathematically, we have to divide the take-home pay by the gross pay and multiply it by 100%
Her take-home pay is the difference between her gross pay and her deductions
We have this as:

We have this as:
Answer:
We have the equation:
(14 N/mm)*X = Y N/cm
So we want to transform 1/mm to 1/cm.
We know that:
10mm = 1cm
1 = 10mm/1cm (we want to have mm on the numerator, so it cancelates with the mm in the denominator)
then the conversion is from 1/mm to 1/cm is:
X = 10mm/cm
then we have:
(14N/mm)*(10mm/cm) = 140 N/cm
