Question

1. Jason is a writer who gets paid a certain number of dollars per page, but 20 percent of the money he makes goes to
taxes. Suppose d(p) represents the number of dollars Jason gets paid as a function of the number of pages he writes, and
suppose t(p) represents the number of Jason’s dollars that go to taxes. If t(p) = 400, what is the value of d (p) - t(p)?

Answer 1

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given that:

d(p) represents the number of dollars jason gets paid

t(p) represents the number of Jason's dollars that go to taxes

t(p)=500

Then,

d(p) = 500 / 0.25

d(p) = 2000

The value of  

(d-t)(p) = 2000 - 500 = 1500
