Answer: 27 rows contain 25 vines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of rows that contain 20 vines.

Let y represent the number of rows that contain 25 vines.

Sarah plants 760 vines in rows containing either 20 vines or 25 vines. This means that

20x + 25y = 760- - - - - - - - - - -1

There are 3 times as many rows containing 25 vines as there are rows containing 20 vines. This means that

y = 3x

Substituting y = 3x into equation 1, it becomes

20x + 25 × 3x = 760

20x + 75x = 760

95x = 760

x = 760/95

x = 9

y = 3x = 3 × 9

y = 27

Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 2 inches, and the larger gear has a ra
Sedaia [141]
1.
The larger gear will have turned through an arc equivalent in length to the smaller circle's circumference. Thus:
2πr(small) = r(large)∅
2π(2) = 8∅
∅ = π/2 = 90°

2.
The distance covered by the larger gear will be:
C = 2πr
C = 2π(8)
C = 16π

Per revolution, the smaller wheel covers:
C = 2πr
C = 2π(2)
C = 4π

Number of revolutions of smaller wheel = 16π / 4π
Number of revolutions = 4

The categories are: 6.2% as social security tax 1.45% as Medicare tax 0.9% as Medicare surtax for employees earning more than $200,000 In this case, the percentage of tax applied will be 6.2 + 1.45 = 7.65% The FICA tax will be 165,000 * 0.0765 FICA tax = $12,622.50</span>
