<u>Answer:</u>

No, Shannon  didn’t mix the correct shade

<u>Explanation: </u>

Ratio required for the shade Red : Blue = 5 : 7

The ratio formed of Shannon must be equal to the above standard ratio

But Shannon’s ratio which was mixed for red and blue is

= Red : Blue  

= 8 : 12

= 2 : 3, which is not equal to 5 : 7.

Therefore it is proved that Shannon mixing does not matches with the required mixing ratio which is 5:7.

Answer:

  $2,617.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this table, the tax is ...

  tax = 2% × $3000 + 3% × (5000 -3000) + 5% × (17000 -5000) + ...

     5.75% × (50,000 -17,000)

  = $60 + 60 + 600 + 1897.50

  tax = $2,617.50

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Above $17,000, the tax is more easily computed as ...

  tax = (5.75% × income) - 257.50

Each tax bracket can have a simplified formula like this.
