Step-by-step explanation:
Lets translate this word problem into math.
"Latoya's annual salary is $26,000" = We start with the number 26,000
"A total of $7352.24 will be deducted for taxes and health insurance" = It's the number we started with "deducted" (minus) 7352.24
"She will receive her paycheck monthly in 12 equal installments" = Our number will be divided by 12
"How much will she get paid with each paycheck?" = "Find answer pls thx"
To put it all together...

Now all we have to do is solve!



Answer:
Latoya will get paid $1,553.98 with each paycheck.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What problem?
X = pencils, y = pens
8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75
4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
Z=22
180-120=60
2x+16=60
2x=44
Z=22
3 ft* 12 inches in a ft= 36 inches total
8/36= 2/9
Final answer: 2/9
