Fifteen percent of an employee's taxable income is collected each paycheck. before taxes are removed from each paycheck,
$350 of tax-exempt expenses is taken out.
if the variable x represents the employee's pay before tax-exempt expenses and taxes are removed, which expression
represents the employee's take-home pay after these deductions?

y = x [1-]

Step-by-step explanation:

If the variable x represents the employee's pay before tax-exempt expenses and taxes are removed and y variable represents the employee's take-home pay after these deductions and if fifteen percent of an employee's taxable income is collected each paycheck, then y is given by

y = x [1-]. (Answer)

For, example, an employee's payment is deducted by $350 at the rate of 15% tax and other deduction.

Therefore, , ⇒ x = $2333.33 is the before tax income of the person.

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2

answer:   {x = -1/2 ,   y = -1
