We have been given that Marcus works for 26 hours each week and 48 weeks each year.

Thus in a year he works for 26 \times 48 = 1248 hours.

Now, we have been given that Marcus earns $8.40 per hour.

Therefore, in 1248 hours, he earns

1248 \times 8.40\\
\\
=\$ 10483.2

Marcus has to pay tax if he earns more than $10,000. Now we have calculated that he earns $ 10483.2  which is higher than $10,000.

Therefore, Marcus has to to pat tax.

Yes, he does. He pays taxes.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A taxpayer must pay tax when his income has reached taxable income. Then the rates apply to taxable income.

Taxable income adjusts gross income minus either the standard deduction or the reduction in permitted items. But in this problem, we face a simplified problem.

<u>Given: </u>

  • Marcus earns $8.40 per hour.
  • He works for 26 hours each week.
  • He works for 48 weeks each year.
  • If he earns over $10,000, then Marcus has to pay tax.

<u>Question:</u>

Does he pay tax?

<u>The Process:</u>

Let us check Marcus's total earning in a year.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{\$ 8.40}{hour} \times \frac{26 \ hours}{week} \times \frac{48 \ weeks}{year} \ }

We cross out similar units.

Thus the total earnings in a year is \boxed{ \ \$ 10,483.2 \ }

Because the total earnings in a year have exceeded $ 10,000, Marcus must pay taxes. In other words, Marcus is now a taxpayer.

Six plus -2 times a number is the same as 26 plus six times the same number.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

and according to question,

six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6

26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26

→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26

→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6

→ -4x = 20

→ x = 20/4 = 5

→ x = 5

therefore, the number is 5.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

12, 36, 108, 324

Step-by-step explanation:

using the recursive formula and a₁ = 4 , then

a₂ = 3a₁ = 3 × 4 = 12

a₃ = 3a₂ = 3 × 12 = 36

a₄ = 3a₃ = 3 × 36 = 108

a₅ = 3a₄ = 3 × 108 = 324
