An employee at a health club takes home an after-tax salary of $950 every two weeks. If the tax rate is 8%, how much does the employee make every two weeks before taxes? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Write an equation and explain how you used it to find your answer.

$1032.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

salary = $950 every two weeks

tax rate = 8%

let the initial pay be x

and let the pay after tax deduction be p

p= x-8/100x

Hence the equation for his pay is

subsitute

950=x-0.08x

950= 0.92x

divide both sides by 0.92

x= 950/0.92

x=$1032.60

The employee make $1032.60 every two weeks before taxes

(3x-8) or (3x+8)
