Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
-3x2 + 12x - 8 = -1 • (3x2 - 12x + 8)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.2 Factoring 3x2 - 12x + 8
The first term is, 3x2 its coefficient is 3 .
The middle term is, -12x its coefficient is -12 .
The last term, "the constant", is +8
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 3 • 8 = 24
Step-2 : Find two factors of 24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -12 .
-24 + -1 = -25
-12 + -2 = -14
-8 + -3 = -11
-6 + -4 = -10
-4 + -6 = -10
-3 + -8 = -11
-2 + -12 = -14
-1 + -24 = -25
1 + 24 = 25
2 + 12 = 14
3 + 8 = 11
4 + 6 = 10
6 + 4 = 10
8 + 3 = 11
12 + 2 = 14
24 + 1 = 25
Answer:
$1,958.23
Step-by-step explanation:
Annual income = $67,525
Total FCIA = 15.3% of salary
Since my annual income is $67,525 the FCIA contribution = 15.3%.
But 12.4% is for Social Security.
The remaining 2.9%(15.3% - 12.4%) will be for Medicare taxes.
The total deduction for I and my employer for medicare taxes will be:
2.9% * $67,525
= $1,958.225
The total deduction for medicare would be: $1,958.23
Note: Assuming we were asked to calculate only employee's medicare, the deduction would be 50% of $1,958.23.
14 because they are vertical angles
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 7x - 3x + 2 = - 8x - 2 ← simplify left side
- 10x + 2 = - 8x - 2 ( add 8x to both sides )
- 2x + 2 = - 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- 2x = - 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = 2
