Answer:
$3,144
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on your tax table, the tax on an amount x over 9000 will be ...
t(x) = 0.054(x -9000) +0.05(9000 -2000) +0.02(2000)
= 0.054x -9000(0.054 -0.05) -2000(0.05 -0.02)
= 0.054x -36 -60
= 0.054x -96
Then the tax on 60,000 will be
t(60000) = 0.054(60000) -96 = 3240 -96 = 3144
The state income tax owed on $60,000 is $3,144.

Answer and explanation:
Not sure if the question is complete or valid but I will explain each option:
Let's assume the question asks which of the options would provide a negative result of -25( as no option evaluates to -255)
A. There would be a negative result here since all golfers have a negative score of -5 after 9 holes, and therefore a total score of -25 for all five golfers
B. Temperature increases by 25 degrees after 5 hours hence 5 degrees increase for every 1 hour. This would obviously give a positive result.
C. A football team gains 25 yards in the first play and loses 5 yards in the second but has a result of 5 yards gained in total. Hence there was a penalty of losing 20 yards for a loss of 5 yards= 25 yards- 20 yards= 5yards
D. Alyson withdraws $25 every week for 5 weeks, therefore she withdraws $125 in 5 weeks. This would be a negative result of -$125.
