Answer:

$2,617.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this table, the tax is ...

tax = 2% × $3000 + 3% × (5000 -3000) + 5% × (17000 -5000) + ...

5.75% × (50,000 -17,000)

= $60 + 60 + 600 + 1897.50

tax = $2,617.50

Additional comment

Above $17,000, the tax is more easily computed as ...

tax = (5.75% × income) - 257.50

Each tax bracket can have a simplified formula like this.

How much alfalfa does Helmut need to add to 30L of ostrich pellets to make a feed mix that is 40% alfalfa by volume?

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

a = 20 . . . . liters

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, multiply the equation by 30+a:

a = 0.4(30 +a)

a = 12 + 0.4a . . . . . eliminate parentheses

0.6a = 12 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.4a

a = 12/0.6 = 20 . . . divide by the coefficient of a

20 L of alfalfa must be added

_____

Check

20/(30+20) = 20/50 = 40/100 = 0.4 . . . . . . answer checks OK

How do i solve for (2x/5)+1=13/5

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x}{5} +1 = \frac{13}{5}$
$\frac{2x+5}{5} = \frac{13}{5}$ divide both sides by 5
2x + 5 = 13 subtract 5 from both sides
2x = 8 divide both sides by 2
x = 4

Use the ditributive property for -8 (x / 3)

ioda

Greetings!

"Use the distributive property for $-8 (x / 3)$ ."

The distribute property is used to simplify an expression/equation. This is done by multiplying the contents of the parenthesis by the number outside of bracket.

 $-8 (x / 3)$
$=(-8*x / -8*3)$
Simplify.
 $=(-8x/-24)$

Hope this helps.
