taxes
According to the oxford dictionary, the word taxes defines as a compulsory contribution to state revenue, levied by the government on workers' income and business profits, or added to the cost of some goods, services, and transactions.

explanation
Money is taken from your yearly earnings to pay for services such as the Police, Emergancy Services, Military, Schools, Postal Service ect. It is also used to pay workers who work in a federal agency such as Postal Workers and the FBI. Citizens of the United States are taxed on items that are non-edible, such as a TV, and phones in stores. Tax percentages differ in every state.

Taxes are destributed to states so the states could build roads, schools, police stations and a lot more stuff.

The country can run Social Programs such as Social Security from taxes.

If the square is the window (I couldn't decipher the grammar/punctuation), the area is 64 feet squared. Since it is a square, the formula to find the area is sxs (side length times side length). 8x8=64, which makes the total area 64 square feet.

14. The area of a rectangle is 375 square inches and it’s perimeter is 80 inches. Find both the length and width.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Length  =25 inches

Width = 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = length of rectangle, w = width of rectangle

Given the area and the perimeter of the rectangle, we can write:

lw = 375

2l+2w=80

So:

l+w = 80\div2

=40

l=40-w

Now, we can use substitution to find the value of w:

lw = 375

(40-w)w = 375

40w-w^2 = 375

375+w^2-40w = 0 (Quadratic equation)

(w-15)(w-25) = 0

∴ w = 15, 25

We can use substitution again to find the value of l

lw = 375

l=375\div w

=25,15

∵ Length usually refers to the longer side of a rectangle, ∴ length =25 inches and width =15 inches.

Hope this helps :)

A rectangle has a perimeter of 30 inches.  Its length is one less than three times its width.  What are the length and width of
Alik [6]

Perimeter of a rectangle can be represented by 2* length + 2 * width

We can represent the width with the variable x

We can represent the length by the expression 3x-1


So, now we can make a forumla and solve

2(3x-1) + 2(x) = 30

6x-2+2x = 30

8x = 32

x = 4 is the width of the rectange.


Now we find the length

3(4)-1

11 = Length
