Answer:

Naomi can expect to pay $10,000 in taxes this year.

Explanation:

Proportional tax systems charge taxpayers by virtue of what they earn annually. It is an equitable system, since it charges the same percentage to all; but not equal, since each person pays a different amount according to their income range.

As in the example I make $20,000 a year and I pay $5,000 in taxes, the tax burden applied is 25%. Therefore, if my friend Naomi earns twice as much as me, that is, $ 40,000 a year, applying the same tax burden she should pay $10,000 in taxes.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

By the end of this period, it may not be too much to say that science had replaced Christianity as the focal point of European civilization. Out of the ferment of the Renaissance and Reformationthere arose a new view of science, bringing about the following transformations: the reeducation of common sense in favour of abstract reasoning

Explanation:

Scientific Revolution, drastic change in scientific thought that took place during the 16th and 17th centuries. A new view of natureemerged during the Scientific Revolution, replacing the Greek view that had dominated science for almost 2,000 years. Science became an autonomous discipline, distinct from both philosophy and technology, and it came to be regarded as having utilitarian goals. By the end of this period, it may not be too much to say that science had replaced Christianity as the focal point of European civilization. Out of the ferment of the Renaissance and Reformationthere arose a new view of science, bringing about the following transformations: the reeducation of common sense in favour of abstract reasoning; the substitution of a quantitative for a qualitative view of nature; the view of nature as a machine rather than as an organism; the development of an experimental, scientific method that sought definite answers to certain limited questions couched in the framework of specific theories; and the acceptance of new criteria for explanation, stressing the “how” rather than the “why” that had characterized the Aristotelian search for final causes.
