Answer:

  114 inches, or 9 ft 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The chair's shadow is 72/48 = 1.5 times as long as the lifeguard's shadow. Since shadow length is presumed proportional to height, we expect the lifeguard chair to be 1.5 times as tall as the lifeguard.

  1.5(76 in) = 114 in = 9 ft 6 in . . . height of lifeguard chair

Answer:

  $3144

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax due on $60,000 is ...

  $60,000 × 5.4% - $96 = $3144 . . . tax due

_____

The detailed calculation is described at brainly.com/question/23711444. The only difference is the value used in the highest bracket, $60,000 instead of $50,000. This adds $540 to the tax that would be due for $50,000.
