Let her salary before taxes = $\"+y+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+7%2F10+%29%2Ay+=+392+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"+10%2F7+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=+%28+10%2F7+%29%2A392+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=+3920+%2F+7+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=+560+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Her take-home pay before taxes is $560 \n" ); document.write( "
