If her original salary is x, then her new salary is 103% of x.
To obtain x from 43989, you therefore divide 43989 by 1.03 to get:
42708 (to nearest dollar).
You can the check it by multiplying by 1.03.
There are two ways to approach this question. The first is to divide both sides of the equation by 1/4, which is the same as multiplying by 4.
4*(-10)=4*(1/4)(8y-12)
-40=1(8y-12)
-40=8y-12
-40+12=8y-12+12
-28=8y
-28/8=8y/8
-3.5=y
Another method is to distribute 1/4 to each term within the parentheses.
-10=8y*(1/4) - 12*(1/4)
-10=2y - 3
-10+3=2y - 3 +3
-7=2y
-7/2= 2y/2
-3.5=y
I hope this is helpful!
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
