Answer:

Maxine has $1,651.20 remaining after state income tax is deducted from her paycheck.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maxine earns $ 21.50 an hour and works 40 hours per week, each week she earns a total of $ 860 (40 x 21.5). Since she collects every 2 weeks, her pre-tax salary is $ 1,720 (860 x 2). But the state discounts an income tax of 4%, with which the money that she effectively receives every two weeks is $ 1,651.20 (1720 - (1720 x 0.04).

Paul purchased a used vehicle that depreciates under a straight-line method.
netineya [11]

Answer:

Option B. $900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the value of the car

x ----> the time in years

we know that

The linear function in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope or the depreciation rate

b is the y-intercept or initial value of the car

we have

The y-intercept or initial value is equal to

b=\$5,000

y=mx+5,000

we have the ordered pair (5,500)

substitute the value of x and the value of y of the ordered pair in the linear equation and solve for m

500=m(5)+5,000

5m=500-5,000\\5m=-4,500\\m=-\$900\ per\ year

Is negative because is a decreasing function

The linear equation is equal to

y=-900x+5,000

therefore

It would depreciate $900 each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of logs=18 hours

6 logs=4 hours

4x=108

x=27 logs

so therefore 27 logs are needed to keep the fire burning for 18 hours
