m^2 -11m -60 = 0

m^2 -11m =60

(m^2 -11m + 121/4) = 361/4

(m - 11/2)^2 = 361/4

m - 11/2 = + or - 19/2

m = 11/2 + 19/2, 11/2 - 19/2

m = 15, -4

---------------------------------------------------

m^2 -11m -60

(11 +- Square root (121 +240))/2

11/2 +- 19/2

m= 15, -4

----------------------------------------------------

m^2 -11m -60

(m - 15) (m + 4)

m = 15, -4

Marlene's taxable income is $95,000. Use this tax schedule to calculate the total amount she owes in taxes. A. 12,88.75 B. 17,90

The answer is C.

Since here taxable income is over $77,100 and below $160,850, her tax is $15,698.75 + [.28*($95,000 - $77,100)].

Tax = $15,698.75 + [.28*($17,900)].
= $15,698.75 + [$5012].
= $20,710.75
