Pam earns $41,667 in one year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation:

Pam's salary (x) multiplied by the percentage represented by expenses (18%) in decimal form (divided by 100) must be equal to $7500.

Mathematically speaking:

x (18/100) = 7500

Solving for x:

x (0.18) = 7500

x = 7500/0.18

x = 41,667

Pam earns $41,667 in one year.

answer: -10

step-by-step explanation:

s(t) = 1 - 10t

s(x) = 1 - 10x

s(x + h) = 1 - 10(x + h)

            = 1 - 10x - 10h

s(x + h) - s(x) = 1 - 10x - 10h - (1 - 10x)

                      = 1 - 10x - 10h - 1 + 10x

                      = -10h

= -10
