100% = Certain (no matter what.. it's going to happen)
75/100 = Likely (has a high chance of happening)
5/10 = Equally likely (can happen, or might not)
1/4 = Unlikely (might not happen)
0.0 = Impossible

hope this helps

John Johnson’s gross pay for this week is $520.95. He is single and claims one withholding allowance. What amount will be withhe

Ivan

Answer:

amount which will be withheld from John's pay for federal income tax this week is $54

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that John Johnson's gross pay for a week is $520.95,

From table it is clear that his gross pay ( $520.95) lies between at least 520 but less than 530 category.

and he claimed one withholding allowance, therefore John Johnson has to pay $54 for federal income tax.

I hope this answer will help you

5. Which of the following linear functions has a graph which passes through points (−5,−2) and (−3,0)?

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

$f(x) = x + 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points (−5,−2) and (−3,0)

Required

Find a linear function that passes through the given points

The question implies that we solve for the equation for the line;

First, the slope of the line must be calculated;

This is calculated as thus:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where $(x_1,y_1) = (-5,-2)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) = (-3,0)$

So, $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$ becomes

$m = \frac{0 - (-2)}{-3 - (-5)}$

$m = \frac{0 + 2}{-3 + 5}$

$m = \frac{2}{2}$

$m = 1$

The equation of the line can then be calculated using any of the given points;

Using

$m = \frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1}$

$Where\ (x_1,y_1) = (-5,-2)\ and\ m =1$

We have

$1 = \frac{y-(-2)}{x-(-5)}$

$1 = \frac{y+2}{x+5}$

Multiply both sides by x + 5

$(x+5)*1 = \frac{y+2}{x+5} * (x+5)$

$x + 5 = y + 2$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$x + 5 - 2 = y + 2 - 2$

$x + 3 = y$

$y = x + 3$

Replace y with f(x)

$f(x) = x + 3$

Hence, from the list of given options; Option B is correct

Alex is standing 60 feet from the base of a flagpole. He measures the angle of elevation to the top of the pole as 35º. Vera is

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

49.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangle AXY,

$Tan 35^0=\frac{|XY|}{60} \\|XY|=60*Tan 35^0=42.01\:feet\\$Therefore, Height of the pole=42.01 \:feet$

We want to determine the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole, which is the angle at V in the diagram.

In Triangle XVY

|VY|=36 feet

$Tan \theta=\frac{|XY|}{|VY|} \\Tan \theta=\frac{42.01}{36}\\ \theta=arctan(\frac{42.01}{36})\\ \theta=49.4^0$

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole is 49.4 degree to the nearest tenth of a degree.

The length of a rectangle is 5ft longer than twice the width if the perimeter is 58 ft find the length and width of the rectangl

Travka [436]

----------------------------------
Define x :
----------------------------------
Let the width be x.
Width = x
Length = 2x + 5 // Length is 5ft longer than twice the width

----------------------------------
Formula for Perimeter :
----------------------------------
Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width)

----------------------------------
Find Width :
----------------------------------
58 = 2 ( 2x + 5 + x) // Substitute Length and Width into formula
58 = 2 (3x + 5) // Combine like terms
58 = 6x + 10 // Apply distributive property
48 = 6x // Take away 10 from both sides
6x = 48 // Switch sides. Make x the subject
x = 8 // Divide by 6 on both sides

----------------------------------
Find Length and Width :
----------------------------------
Width = x = 8 ft
Length = 2x + 5 = 2(8) + 5 = 21 ft

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The length is 21 ft and the width is 8 ft.
