Answer:

X=5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3-2x/7=24

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

5x-3-2x/7=24

Simplifying:

5x-3-0.285714285714x=24

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+5x-0.285714285714x=+24+3

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+4.71428571429x=+27

We divide both sides of the equation by 4.71428571429 to get x.  

x=5.72727272727

Semenov [28]

Answer: $32,625

Step-by-step explanation:

40,000-10,000 = 35,000 ---> how much is taxed

35,000 x .25 = 8,750 = income tax

45,000 - 8,750 = 36,250

36,250 x .1 = 3,625 ---> social security

45,000 (gross pay) - 8,750 (income tax) - 3,625 = 32, 625

HELP If you apply these changes to the linear parent function , f(x)-=x what is the equation of the new function vertically comp
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

transformed function, g (x) = (1/5)(-x)+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming

f (x) = -x           (and not f(x)-=x)

To compress/expand, we apply

g (x) = a*f(bx-k)+h

where

a=vertical stretch factor, a= 1/5 for compression (to stretch 5 times, a=5)

b=horizontal compression factor (=1 i this case)

h=vertical translation (=7)

k=horizontal translation (=0)

So the transformed function,

g (x) = (1/5)(-x)+7
