Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Carys earned £45,600 before tax.

1) No tax on the first £11,000 of earnings ⇒ tax = 0

2) Earnings in excess of £11 000 and up to £43 000 taxed at a rate of 20%

3) Earnings in excess of £43 000 and up to £150 000 taxed at a rate of 40%

So, Carys earning in between £43,000 and £150,000

So, £45,600 = £11,000 + £32,000 + £2,600

The tax should she pay = £11,000 * 0 + £32,000 * 20% + £2,600 * 40%

= 11,000 * 0 + 32,000 * 0.2 + 2,600 * 0.4

= 0 + 6,400 + 1,040 = £7,440

<u>So, she should pay £7,440</u>

Anita purchased a couch that was priced at $700. She will also have to pay 6% sales tax. How much will she pay in total for the

Zolol [24]

Answer:

$742

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to figure out what 6% of 700 dollars is and then add that to 700. The easiest way to find the percentage of a number is to set it up in the equation:

6/100 = x/700 where 6 is the percentage of 700 (out of 100 because you can only get up to 100 percent in this case) and x is 6 percent of 700. when you cross multiply, you get 100x = 4200. Then you divide both sides by 100 to get x by itself. This will give you x = 42 Add this to 700 for 742 as the total amount that will be paid. Sorry if this first half was a little confusing

How do I write a recursive formula for this sequence? 2, 6, 18, 54, 162, ... I already know the common difference is x3.

dmitriy555 [2]

For the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ..., the explicit formula is: an = a1 ! rn"1 = 2 ! 3n"1 , and the recursive formula is: a1 = 2, an+1 = an ! 3 . In each case, successively replacing n by 1, 2, 3, ... will yield the terms of the sequence. See the examples below.

It takes 8 hours for 4 men to paint a room.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

16 men would be needed to paint the room in 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportion to solve the problem given, but first we need to determine whether it is a direct or indirect proportion.

If the number of men are increase, the time taken to do the work will decrease, If the number of men are decrease, the time taken to do the work will increase. Therefore, this is an indirect proportion.

We are going to arrange the data inversely.

Let x be the number of men needed to paint the room in two hours

8 hours = 2 hours

x = 4 men

Cross-multiply

2×x = 8×4

2x = 32

Divide both-side of the equation by 2

2x/2 = 32/2

x = 16 men

16 men would be needed to paint the room in 2 hours
