<span>The moving of decimal to the left is a shortcut to the
operation of multiplying number by decimal numbers. So the power of 10 that is involved
in converting the measurements of pete is -4, so he needs to multiply the
measurement by 10^-4 to convert it.</span>
Answer:
Option A is correct.
The system of equation is inconsistent is;
2x+8y=6
5x+20y=2
Explanation:
* A system of equations is called an inconsistent system, if there is no solution because the lines are parallel.
* If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .
*A dependent system of equations is when the same line is written in two different forms so that there are infinite solutions.
(A)
2x+8y=6
5x+20y=2
This is inconsistent, because as shown below in the graph of figure 1 that the lines do not intersect, so the graphs are parallel and there is no solution.
(B)
5x+4y=-14
3x+6y=6
this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 2 and also it is independent.
(C)
x+2y=3
4x+6y=5
this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 3.
(D)
3x-2y=2
6x-4y=4
this is a consistent system and has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent because both equations represent the same line. as shown below in the graph of Figure-4.
Therefore, the only Option A system of equation is inconsistent.
<span>The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) requires employers to withhold a certain percentage of an employee's income as tax. The categories are:
6.2% as social security tax
1.45% as Medicare tax
0.9% as Medicare surtax for employees earning more than $200,000
In this case, the percentage of tax applied will be 6.2 + 1.45 = 7.65%
The FICA tax will be 110,330 * 0.0765
FICA tax = $8,440.24</span>
