Answer:

-9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(3-12)/(0-(-2))

m=-9/(0+2)

m=-9/2

Prove that the triangle EDF is isosceles. Give reasons for your answer.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the attached figure.

We are given the following things:

$\angle EDF = y$

$\text{External }\angle DFG = 90 +\dfrac{y}{2}$

Let us try to find out $\angle E$ and $\angle DFE$ . After that we will compare them.

Finding  $\angle DFE$ :

Side EG is a straight line so $\angle GFE = 180$

$\angle GFE$ is sum of internal $\angle DFE$ and external $\angle DFG$

$\angle GFE = 180 = \angle DFE + \angle DFG\\\Rightarrow 180 = \angle DFE + (90+\dfrac{y}{2})\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 180 - 90 - \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow \angle DFE = 90 - \dfrac{y}{2} ....... (1)$

Finding  $\angle E$ :

Property of external angle: External angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles of a triangle.

i.e. external $\angle DFG$ = $\angle E + \angle EDF$

$\Rightarrow 90+\dfrac{y}{2} = \angle E + y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90+\dfrac{y}{2} -y\\\Rightarrow \angle E = 90-\dfrac{y}{2} ....... (2)$

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

It can be clearly seen that:

$\angle DFE = \angle E =90-\dfrac{y}{2}$

The two angles of $\triangle EDF$ are equal hence $\triangle EDF$ is isosceles.

Janice works for a salary of $2,396 per month. She has federal income tax withheld at the rate of 15 percent, Social Security ta

MAVERICK [17]

Given that Janice monthly salary is $2,396. And she has deductions of federal income tax withheld at the rate 15%, social security tax at the rate of 6.2% and medicare tax at the rate of 1.45% and health insurance premium worth 95$ per month.

Let us calculate total deductions.

Federal income tax = 15% of 2396 = 0.15*2396 =$359.4

Social security tax = 6.2% of 2396=0.062*2396 =$148.552

Medicare tax = 1.45% of 2396= 0.0145*2396=$34.742

health insurance premium =$95

Total deductions = $637.694

To calculate Janice net pay we have to subtract deductions from monthly salary that is 2396-637.694 = $1758.306

Hence net pay of Janice is $1758.306 per month.
