Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

625

Step-by-step explanation:

1. parenthesis first, so it simplifies to ((6+(8)2÷4*1)/2)^4

2. pemdas says that multiplication and division go before addition and subtraction, so ((6+(8)2÷4*1)/2)^4 becomes ((6+16÷4*1)/2)^4 ---> ((6+4)/2)^4

3. then simplify inside of the parenthesis, so it becomes 5^4, which is 625

Hector has a part-time job at a garage. He gets a paycheck of $820 every for

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

<u>A. Hector pays $ 123 in taxes each paycheck.</u>

<u>B. Hector should expect to receive $615 or 75% of his regular pay.</u>

<u>C. Hector will be paid $ 902 when he receives his next 4- week paycheck.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the questions correctly:

Paycheck Hector gets every four weeks = $ 820

2. Hector has to pay 15% of his income in taxes. How much money does he

pay in taxes each paycheck? Show your thinking with a diagram and

calculations.

Taxes = 15% of 820

Taxes = 0.15 * 820

Taxes = $ 123

Hector's paycheck: ←------------------------------820--------------------------------------→

Taxes: ←----123---→

3. Hector took a 1-week vacation, so his next paycheck will only be for 3

weeks of work. What percentage of his regular pay should he expect to

receive? How much is that?

We can answer this question using the Direct Rule of Three, this way:

Weeks Paycheck

4 820

3 x

***********************************

4x = 820 * 3

4x = 2,460

x = 2,460/4

x = 615

615/820 = 0.75 = 75%

4. The garage owner is impressed with Hector's work and is giving him a

10% raise. How much will Hector be paid when he receives his next 4- week paycheck?

Raise = 10% of 820

Raise = 0.1 * 820 = 82

Next 4- week paycheck = 820 + 82 = 902

Over the last three evenings, Donna received a total of 129 phone calls at the call center. The third evening, she received 3 ti

lakkis [162]

Answer:

Number of calls received in 1st evening = 24

Number of calls received in 2nd evening = 33

Number of calls received in 3rd evening = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

number of calls received in first evening be "x"

number of calls received in 2nd evening be "y"

number of calls received in 3rd evening be "z"

Total, in 3 evenings, we have 129 phone calls, so we can write:

x + y + z = 129

3rd evening, 3 times as first evening. We can write:

z = 3x

2nd evening, 9 MORE THAN FIRST. So we can write:

y = 9 + x

Now we replace 2nd and 3rd equation in 1st equation to get:

x + y + z = 129

x + 9 + x + 3x = 129

Now, first, we solve for x:

$x + 9 + x + 3x = 129\\5x+9=129\\5x=120\\x=24$

Solving for y:

y = 9 + x

y = 9 + 24

y = 33

Solving for z:

z = 3x

z = 3(24)

z = 72

Thus,

Number of calls received in 1st evening = 24

Number of calls received in 2nd evening = 33

Number of calls received in 3rd evening = 72
