Answer:

$7,440.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the tax rates as follows:

$0-$11,000 = No tax.

$11,000-$43,000 = 20%.

$43,000-$150,000 = 40%.

Earnings over $150,000 = 45%.

Since last year Carys earned $45,600, so we will have to find the tax paid by her for 11,000-43,000 at rate of 20%, then the tax for amount over 43,000 at the rate of 40%.

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for 11000-43000}=\frac{20}{100}\times (43,000-11,000)$

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for 11000-43000}=0.20\times (32,000)$

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for 11000-43000}=6400$

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for the amount over 43000}=\frac{40}{100}\times (45,600-43,000)$

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for the amount over 43000}=0.40\times (2600)$

$\text{The amount of tax paid by Carys for the amount over 43000}=1040$

$\text{The total amount of tax paid by Carys}=6400+1040$

$\text{The total amount of tax paid by Carys}=7440$

Therefore, Carys paid an amount of $7,440 in tax.

I need help fast pleasee

trapecia [35]

Answer:

<em>y = - cos ( </em> $\frac{3}{4}$ <em> x + </em> $\frac{\pi }{4}$ <em> ) </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = A cos ( Bx + C) + D

Vertical shift D = 0

A = - 1

Compression / Stretching B

Period of given function is $\frac{8\pi }{3}$

Period of cos x is 2π

$\frac{8\pi }{3}$ = $\frac{2\pi }{B}$ ⇒ B = $\frac{3}{4}$

Horizontal shift is C ÷ B

Horizontal shift of given function is $\frac{\pi }{3}$

$\frac{\pi }{3}$ = C ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$ ⇒ C = $\frac{\pi }{4}$

So, the equation of given function is

<em>y = - cos ( </em> $\frac{3}{4}$ <em> x + </em> $\frac{\pi }{4}$ <em> ) </em>
