To find this you multiply 1.39 by 2.4. This gives you 3.336, which you round to 3.34. So it will cost $3.34

Pension = 12% of salary

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Salary = $43,313.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let his salary be x.

Now we're told that;

Pension = 12% of his salary = 0.12x

Health Insurance = 0.3% of salary = 0.003x

Disability Insurance = 0.4% of salary = 0.004x

Since his total contract with benefits is worth $48,814.20

This means that;

x + 0.12x + 0.003x + 0.004x = 48814.2

1.127x = 48814.2

x = 48814.2/1.127

x = $43,313.40

Dan made $5000 in taxable income last year.

storchak [24]

well, we know is 10% for the first 7500, but Dan only made 5000 of taxable income, so he's in that range of 0 - 7500, so he only gets to pay 10% of 5000.

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{10\% of 5000}}{\left( \cfrac{10}{100} \right)5000}\implies 500$

Complete the equivalent equation for –7x – 60 = x2 + 10x.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x = -5

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x

add 7x to both sides

x^2 + 17x = -60

add 60 to both sides

x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0

factorise quadratic

(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0

<em>x = -12</em>

<em>x = -12x = -5</em>
