Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
- Bert earns $35,000 gross annual salary
- Any amounts earned up to $20,000 are taxed at x%
- Any amounts earned beyond $20,000 are taxed at 20%
- Bert pays $4,500 per annum in income tax
To find x
Amount earned beyond $20,000
= $35,000 - $20,000
= $15,000
That is the amount to be taxed at 20%
Therefore,
x% × 20000 + 20% × 15000 = 4500
200x + 3000 = 4500
200x = 4500 - 3000
200x = 1500
x = 1500/200
x = 7.5
In order to calculate that distance, we need to know the
" scale " of the map ... how many miles is represented by
1 inch on the map, or the ratio.
Different maps are drawn with different scales.
The length of his territory is 12 square miles long, just divide 96 and 8, in which you get 12
Answer: 5/3
One of the side lengths goes from 3 to 5. So, the scale factor is 5/3.
Hope that helped!

Answer:
x≈231.123
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Make a ratio 314/2512= x/1584
2) Use the concept of cross multiplication and get 314*1584=2512x
3) Use Algebra:
314*1584=497,376
497,376/2152=2512x/2152
x≈231.123
