Answer:

Elaine spent $50, Danetta spent $75, and Jan spent $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much Elaine spent:

Danetta will be represented by x + 25

Jan will be represented by x - 10

Then, create an equation:

x + x + 25 + x - 10 = 165

Add like terms and solve for x:

3x + 15 = 165

3x = 150

x = 50

So, this means Elaine spent $50

Plug in 50 as x to find how much Danetta and Jan spent:

x + 25

50 + 25

= $75 (Danetta)

x - 10

50 - 10

= $40 (Jan)

So, Elaine spent $50, Danetta spent $75, and Jan spent $40

Sergio039 [100]
So the first 20 boxes at 4.45 a piece will total 89.
The next 25 at 4 each will be 100.
Add those and you have 189 dollars, which is a spare of 45.
45/3.75 = 12 . 
So the answer is 57

Marcus earned $54,000 last year when the Social Security tax was 6.2% of income up to $94,200. His Medicare tax was 1.45%. How m
AysviL [449]

Answer

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax amount = $743

Step by step explanation

The amount earned by Marcus = $54000

Social security tax = 6.2% = 6.2/100 = 0.062

Social security tax amount = 54000*0.062

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax = 1.45% = 1.45/100 = 0.0145

Medicare tax amount = 54000*0.0145

Medicare tax amount = $743

Hope this will help you.

Find all the zeros of the equation 12x^2-64=-x^4
Natalija [7]

Answer: all the zeroes of the above equation will be

(x-4)(x+4)(x-2)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we  have given that

12x^2-64=-x^4\\\\x^4+12x^2-64=0

We need to find the zeroes of the above equation.

So, we will use  "Split the middle terms" :

x^4+12x^2-64=0\\\\x^4+16x^2-4x^2-64=0\\\\x^2(x^2-16)-4(x^2-16)=0\\\\(x^2-4)(x^2-16)=0\\\\x^2-4=0\ or\ x^2-16=0\\\\\text{ "Using }a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)"\\\\x^2-4=x^2-2^2=(x-2)(x+2)\\\\x^2-16=x^2-4^2=(x+4)(x-4)

So, all the zeroes of the above equation will be

(x-4)(x+4)(x-2)(x+2)
