From Leland’s gross pay of p dollars last week, t percent was deducted for taxes and then s dollars was deducted for savings. What amount of Leland’s gross pay last week remained after these two deductions? (1) p – s = 244 (2) pt = 7,552?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(1) p - s = 244

(2) pt = 7,552

The amount after two deductions is p- (t%)p-s

we get p-s from (1) but we don't know p(t%) , which is insufficient

we get pt from (2) ,it means p(t%)=7552/100 . But we don't know p-s, it is insufficient.

combining the two data, we can get p- (t%)p-s. Therefore, the ans is C
