Daniella is interviewing for a job. She wants her take-home pay to be at least $51,000

Okay. So Daniella wants to have a take-home pay of at least $51,000, but she ahs to pay 15% income tax, which means 15% of what she earns will be gone. To find out the least amont of salary she needs to make, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

51,000/x = 85/100

This is because we are looking for the amount of money made overall, but the $51,000 is only part of the salary earned, and even though you pay 15% income tax, you still take home 85% of your salary. Cross multiply the valyes in order to get 5,100,000 = 85x. Divide each side by 85 to isolate the variable. 5,100,000/85 is 60,000. Let's check this by multiplying by 85% (0.85). 60,000 * 0.85 is 51,000. There. x = 60,000. Daniella will need to make at least $60,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis testing is a procedure whereby a researcher determines if the null hypothesis is rejected or accepted, depending on the significant level or the alpha level. When a type I error is made, the null hypothesis is rejected even though it is correct. To solve this problem, the significant or alpha level is set to 5% or 0.05.
