We have been given that Marcus works for 26 hours each week and 48 weeks each year.
Thus in a year he works for 
hours.
Now, we have been given that Marcus earns $8.40 per hour.
Therefore, in 1248 hours, he earns
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.
x - Alma's given number
15•x - the number multiplied by 15 (the correct answer)
5•x - the number multiplied by Alma (Alma's answer)
her answer is 150 less than the correct answer:
5•x = 15•x - 150
15x - 150 = 5x
15x - 5x = 150
10x = 150
<u>x = 15</u>
3.987 rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.0
7 2/3 + 8 5/6 = 16 1/2 ( or 32/2 )
Answer:
27.968 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
1) we need to find 8% of 32:
32*0.08=2.56
so 8% of 32 is 2.56 mins.
we need to subtract 2.56 by 32 since its says the times was cut by 8%
so
32-2.56=29.44
now 5% of 29.44:
29.44*0.05=1.472
1.472 mins
so
29.44-1.472=27.968
Hope this helps!
