Comparing Two Functions Quiz A factory needs to grate 8,000 pounds of cheese every day. The manager of the factory wants to buy a faster cheese grating machine. The amount of cheese remaining to be grated, y pounds, is a function of the time, x minutes, after the machine starts grating every morning. What is the equation that represents the function of the machine?

Total deductions= 0.3245ab and Net pay= 0.6755ab

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the pay rate= a dollar per hour

And hours worked= b hours

Gross earning= the pay rate x hours worked

Gross earning= ab

Deductions are:

Federal taxes= 20% of gross earnings= 20/100 x ab= 0.2ab dollars

State taxes= 6% of gross earning= 6/100 x ab= 0.06ab dollars

Social security deduction= 6.45% of gross earning= 6.45/100 x ab= 0.0645ab

So,

The total deduction= federal taxes + state taxes + social security deduction

The total deduction= 0.2ab + 0.06ab + 0.0645ab= 0.3245ab dollars

And  

Net pay= gross earning – total deduction

Net pay= ab – 0.3245ab= 0.6755ab dollars
