A state gets its money from a state lottery, a property tax, a sales tax of 5%, and an excise tax. This year it projects that it

will receive $32 million from the state lottery, $40 million from the property tax, and $10 million from the excise tax. If the state needs $100 million to cover its expenses, how many dollars worth of taxable items must be purchased in the state this year for the state to break even?

For the state to break even, its expenses must equal its revenue

expenses = 100 million
income = 32 mill + 40 million + 10 million = 82 million + 0.05x

100,000,000 = 82,000,000 + 0.05x......with x being taxable income
100,000,000 - 82,000,000 = 0.05x
18,000,000 = 0.05x
18,000,000 / 0.05 = x
360,000,000 = x <===

LMN≅PQR
tresset_1 [31]
<span>LMN≅PQR means that point L is equal to P, point M is equal to Q, and point N is equal to R. All lines are the same.

Point Q has an angle of 72, which means that point M also has an angle of 72.

Now you have two angles to find x. All interior angles of a triangle add up to 180, so you can set up the following equation to find x:

72 + 36 + x = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides.

72 + x = 144

Subtract 72 from both sides.

x = 72

The angle of point L, x, is 72.

Bad White [126]
Roth IRA doesn't get you a tax deduction for the contributions, but the earnings grow tax free and you don't pay tax on the withdrawals after retirement. A traditional IRA gives you a tax deduction for the contributions at the time you make them, and the earnings grow tax free, but when you withdraw the money after retirement, you are taxed on it. The idea is that you are hopefully in a lower tax bracket at that point. So its only natural that Roth IRA is the best.

A family swimming pool holds 61 m3 of water. It loses 0.27m3 of water to evaporation each day. This situation can be represented
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: when x = 100 days, y = 34 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Volumen = 61 m³

Loses 0.27 m³ each day

Equation    y + 0.27x = 61

when x = 100, y = ?

Process, just substitute x in the equation and solve it for y

                  y + 0.27(100) = 61

                  y + 27 = 61

                  y = 61 - 27

                  y = 34 m³

It means that after ten days, the swimming pool will only have 34 m³, because 27 m³ will have evaporated.
