We we are asked to solve this kind of problem we are asked to find the value of the value (x in this case). So the first thing we want to do isolate x by subtracting 5/12 from both sides.
x+5/12-5/12=5/8-5/12
Simplify
x=5/8-5/12
Reduce
x=3/3(5/8)-2/2(5/12)
x=15/24-10/24
x=5/24
Answer:
a. Weekly Gross pay:
= 9.50 * 20
= $190
b. Federal tax withheld:
= 10% * 190
= $19
c. FICA Tax withheld:
= 5.65% * 190
= $10.74
d. State tax withheld:
= 5% * 190
= $9.50
e. Weekly net pay
= Gross pay - taxes
= 190 - 19 - 10.74 - 9.50
= $150.76
f. Percentage withheld for taxes:
= (19 + 10.74 + 9.50) / 190 * 100%
= 20.7%
The answer would be D)12/4 because if 4 quarts=1 gallon then 12/4=3 gallons
Answer:
y = 13.9
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that
–5.7 + y = 8.2. -----(1)
Equation (1) is a linear equation in one variable.
LHS consists of a constant and a variable term
RHS consists of only constant term
<u>Find the value of y</u>
Solving the equation
-5.7 + y = 8.2
moving -5.7 to the RHS
y = 8.2 + 5.7
y = 13.9
Therefore the value of y = 13.9
-5.7 + y = 8.2
Answer:
7 classmates
Step-by-step explanation:
The last person in the line is in position 35.
The Maria's leading classmate is in the position 35-23+1 = 13.
So, Maria's classmates are from position 13 to 19 (not including herself), and their number is 19-12 = 7 persons.
ANSWER. Maria has 7 classmates (not including herself).
Hope this helps.
