Answer:

$261.8 Is how much you take home.

Step-by-step explanation:

(* is multiply)

In order to find the percentage of a value, you multiply the value by the percent. Think of 100% as a scale of 1 to 0.00, since 100% of something has all of it's value, so 50% would be 0.5

23% of 340 is 78.2 ( 340 * 0.23)

Subtract 340 by 78.2, and you get your net pay, 261.8

Another way to do this is subtract 100% by 23%.

so 1 - 0.23= 0.77, which is how much percent of that pay you get to keep

so 340 * 0.77 = 261.8

ANSWER : (9u - 8)2

STEPS:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 81 • 64 = 5184

Step-2 : Find two factors of 5184 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -144 .

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -72 and -72
81u2 - 72u - 72u - 64

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
9u • (9u-8)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(9u-8) • (9u-8)
Which is the desired factorization
