Before paying employee bonuses and state and federal taxes, a company earns profits of $60,000. The company pays employees a bon

us equal to 5% of after-tax profits. State tax is 5% of profits (after bonuses are paid). Finally, federal tax is 40% of profits (after bonuses and state tax are paid). Determine a linear equation system to find the amounts paid in bonuses, state tax, and federal tax.

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0.05&0.05\\0.05&1&0\\0.4&0.4&1\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{c} x_1\\x_2\\x_3\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c} 3000\\3000\\24000\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Profits earned = $ 60, 000

- Bonus after tax = 5%

- State tax after bonus is = 5%

- Federal tax after bonus and state tax is = 40%

Find:

A linear equation system to find the amounts paid in bonuses, state tax, and federal tax.

Solution:

Define variables:

- x_1 : amount paid for bonuses

- x_2: amount paid for state tax

- x_3: amount paid for federal tax

- Since bonuses are paid after taxes at 5 %:

                                   x_1 = 0.05(60,000 - x_2 - x_3)

                                   3000 = x_1 + 0.5x_2 + 0.5x_3

- State taxes are paid after bonuses:

                                   x_2 = 0.05*(60000 - x_1)

                                   x_2 + 0.05x_2 = 3000

- Finally federal tax are paid:

                                   x_3 = 0.4*(60,000 - x_1 - x_2)

                                  x_3 + 0.4x_2 + 0.4x_3 = 24,000

- Therefore the system is:

                                  x_1 + 0.5x_2 + 0.5x_3= 3000  

                                   x_2 + 0.05x_2 = 3000

                                   x_3 + 0.4x_2 + 0.4x_3 = 24,000

Therefore the system can be expressed as an equation below:

                            \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0.05&0.05\\0.05&1&0\\0.4&0.4&1\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{c} x_1\\x_2\\x_3\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c} 3000\\3000\\24000\end{array}\right]

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Using formula to calculate the circumference of wheel:

 

where

D is the distance bike travel

n is the number of times rotation

C is the circumference of the wheel

As per the statement:

Lin’s bike travels 100 meters when her wheels rotate 55 times.

here, n = 55 rotation and D = 100 meter.

then by definition:

meter

Therefore, the circumference of her wheel is, 1 9/11

Find the area of the shaded region. The graph depicts the standard normal distribution of bone density scores with mean 0 and st
kirill115 [55]

The area of the shaded region is 0.1271 (12.71%).

<h3>What is the z score?</h3>

Z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:

z = (raw score - mean)/standard deviation

Given:

Mean 0 and standard deviation 1. Hence, for z=-1.14:

P(z < -1.14) = 0.1271

The area of the shaded region is 0.1271 (12.71%).
