Answer:

(a) Engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

(b) Samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter

(c) Measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conform to engineering specifications.

(d) Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complement of a set refers to elements that does not exist in that set. It means what does not exist in the set but exist in the universal set.

(a) Engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

In this case, the Universal set is a set of engineers in full-time employment. The given set is for engineers with less than 36 months of full-time employment. The complement is engineers with greater than 36 months of full-time employment.

(b) Samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter

In this case, the universal set is a set of samples of cement block having compressive strength. The given set is a set of cement block having compressive strength less than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter. The complement is samples of cement blocks with compressive strength greater than 6000 kilograms per square centimeter.

(c) Measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conform to engineering specifications.

In this case, the universal set is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons. The given set is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that do not conform to engineering specifications. The complement is a set of measurements of the diameter of forged pistons that conforms to engineering specification.

(d) Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

In this case, the universal set is a set of Cholesterol levels. The given set is Cholesterol levels that measure greater than 180 and less than 220. The complement is Cholesterol levels that measure less than 180 and greater than 220.

Two cars start towards each other from points 200 miles apart .One car travels at 40 miles per hours and the other travel at 35
Vanyuwa [196]

Recall: distance = rate times time.

To determine how far apart the two cars will be after four hours of travel, subtract the sum of the distances traveled from 200 mi:

Distance apart after four hours = 200 mi - (40 mph)(4 hrs) - (35 mph)(4 hrs)

= 200 mi - 160 mi - 140 mi = -100 mi

The wording of your question implies that the cars will not yet have met after four hours of travel. This negative result is absurd. Please ensure that you have copied down the problem completely and accurately.

Solve the system of linear equations using multiplication.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

(8,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is:

3x+3y=21

6x+12y=36

Since I prefer to use smaller numbers I'm going to divide both sides of the first equation by 3 and both sides of the equation equation by 6.

This gives me the system:

x+y=7

x+2y=6

We could solve the first equation for x and replace the second x with that.

Let's do that.

x+y=7

Subtract y on both sides:

x=7-y

So we are replacing the second x in the second equation with (7-y) which gives us:

(7-y)+2y=6

7-y+2y=6

7+y=6

y=6-7

y=-1

Now recall the first equation we arranged so that x was the subject. I'm referring to x=7-y.

We can now find x given that y=-1 using the equation x=7-y.

Let's do that.

x=7-y with y=-1:

x=7-(-1)

x=7+1

x=8

So the solution is (8,-1).

We can check this point by plugging it into both equations.

If both equations render true for that point, then we have verify the solution.

Let's try it.

3x+3y=21 with (x,y)=(8,-1):

3(8)+3(-1)=21

24+(-3)=21

21=21 is a true equation so the "solution" looks promising still.

6x+12y=36 with (x,y)=(8,-1):

6(8)+12(-1)=36

48+(-12)=36

36=36 is also true so the solution has been verified since both equations render true for that point.

Determine the total annual FICA tax for an annual salary of $110,330. Use $106,800 for maximum taxable earningsa.$822.14b.$844.0
Agata [3.3K]
<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>
