Answer:</h2><h3>
x = -9</h3>
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
<h3><u>Step 1</u>: Simplify both sides of the equation.</h3><h3 /><h3>1/3x+1=−2</h3><h3 /><h3><u>Step 2</u>: Subtract 1 from both sides.</h3><h3 /><h3>1/3x+1−1=−2−1</h3><h3 /><h3>1/3x=−3</h3><h3 /><h3><u>Step 3</u>: Multiply both sides by 3.</h3><h3 /><h3>3*(1/3x)=(3)*(−3)</h3><h3 /><h3>x=−9</h3>
Divide 132 by 16 to get 8.25 and you have to round up because you can’t fit 0.25 of people on a table.
Your parabola should look like this image. The vertex is at (-1, 9), and you can use any of the x-intercepts (-4, 0) & (2, 0) or the y-intercept (0, 8) as a second point.

Step-by-step explanation:
A spreadsheet is a useful tool for keeping track of the numbers. A picture of one is attached.
We have assumed that the dollar amount for housing computed in the first part remains the same (though the percentage changes). If that is not the case, you'll have to recompute.
Likewise, we assume that the "5%" retirement amount remains 5% of the nominal salary, rather than 5% of the salary after the mandatory retirement deduction. Similarly, we assume dance lessons remain at their original amount, and were not reduced when the company began taking mandatory retirement.
Feel free to build your own spreadsheet and recompute as needed for any assumptions I got wrong, or for any additional scenarios.
