Answer:

Salary = $43,313.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let his salary be x.

Now we're told that;

Pension = 12% of his salary = 0.12x

Health Insurance = 0.3% of salary = 0.003x

Disability Insurance = 0.4% of salary = 0.004x

Since his total contract with benefits is worth $48,814.20

This means that;

x + 0.12x + 0.003x + 0.004x = 48814.2

1.127x = 48814.2

x = 48814.2/1.127

x = $43,313.40

givi [52]

The mass of brick is 2478 gram

Solution:

A brick is in the shape of a rectangular prism with a length of 8 inches, a width of 3.5 inches, and a height of 2 inches

Length = 8 inches

Width = 3.5 inches

Height = 2 inches

The volume of rectangular prism is given as:

$volume = length \times width \times height$

$volume = 8 \times 3.5 \times 2\\\\volume = 56$

Thus volume of brick is 56 cubic inches

Convert inches to centimeter

1 inch = 2.54 centimeter

Therefore,

56 cubic inches = 56 x 2.54 x 2.54 x 2.54 cubic centimeter

56 cubic inches = 917.676 cubic centimeter

Thus, we get,

volume = 917.676 cubic centimeter

The brick has a density of 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter

Density = 2.7 grams

The mass of brick is given by formula:

$mass = density \times volume$

Substituting the values we get,

$mass = 2.7 \times 917.676\\\\mass = 2477.724 \approx 2478$

Thus mass of brick is 2478 gram
