A couple has a total household income of $84,000. The husband earns $18,000 less than twice what the wife earns. How much does the wife earn? Select the correct answer below:

$34000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a systems of equations, assuming is the husbands income and is the wife's income.

h + w = 84000

h = 2w - 18000

We can substitute h into the equation as 2w - 18000:

(2w - 18000) + w = 84000

Combine like terms:

3w - 18000 = 84000

Add 18000 to both sides

3w = 102000

And divide both sides by 3

w = 34000

Now that we know how much the wife earns, we can also find out how much the husband earns by substituting into the equation.

h + 34000  = 84000

h = 50000

Hope this helped!

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
