D (7) should be the correct answer.
Answer:
9425
D
Step-by-step explanation:
They are in the third tax bracket down. That means that their joint income is over 67900 but less than 137050.
The base rate is 9350. But they are 68200 - 67900 = 300 over the minimum.
So 25% of that 300 is also to be paid to the government 25/100 * 300 = 75 dollars
Now they must pay 9350 + 75 = 9425
Answer D
Q-2r=4, therefore: q=4+2r.
Plug the value of q into q+r=37, so you get:
4+2r+r=37
3r=37-4=33
3r=33
Therefore: r=11.
q-2r=4, but r=11, so:
q-2(11)=4
q-22=4
Therefore q=26.
Check if the answer is correct using second equation:
q=4+2r=4+2(11)=4+22=26.
So: q=26 and r=11.
1 foot = 12 inches
Therefore:
2 feet = 24 inches
------------------
2 feet x 725 = 1450 feet

The real tower is 725 times taller than the actual model.
Ratio:
725 : 1
The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
Hope you understand!!
