The sales tax on a $20 hammer is 7 percent, or $1.40. why is this tax a bigger burden for josh, who has a $15,000 income, than f

Bond [772]

Answer:

The ratio of the sales tax to Josh income is greater than the sales tax to aaron income (As the income of the Josh is less as compared to the arron income) this shows the tax is bigger burden for the Josh as compared to the aaron .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The sales tax on a $20 hammer is 7 percent, or $1.40.

As income of the josh is 15000 and the income of the aaron is $150000 .

Now the ratio of the sales tax to the josh income .

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{Josh\ income} = \frac{1.40}{15000}$

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{Josh\ income} = \frac{14}{15000\times 10}$

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{Josh\ income} = \frac{7}{75000}$

In decimal form

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{Josh\ income} = 0.000093\ (Approx)$

Now the ratio of the sales tax to the aaron income .

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{aaron\ income} = \frac{1.40}{150000}$

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{aaron\ income} = \frac{14}{150000\times 10}$

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{aaron\ income} = \frac{7}{750000}$

In decimal form

$\frac{Sales\ tax}{aaron\ income} = 0.0000093\ (Approx)$

Thus as the ratio of the sales tax to Josh income is greater than the sales tax to aaron income (As the income of the Josh is less as compared to the arron income) this shows the tax is bigger burden for the Josh as compared to the aaron .

A guy walks into the store and steals $100 bill from the register without the owner’s knowledge. He comes back 5 minutes later a

Artemon [7]

The answer is $100
first the guy steals $100 from the owner. Therefore that $100 is a direct loss for the owner.
the same guy comes and pays $100 for goods worth $70. and the balance is paid back to the guy.
So the owner gets 100 and pays back 30 and gives goods worth 70. Therefore that transaction is cancelled as the amounts have been paid and no net effect with that transaction . the owner gets 70 for the goods he sold so that transaction wont lose his money. the fact that the guy paid for the bill with the money he stole isn't relevant here as the transaction has been completed
so the only loss for the owner is the $100 the guy stole at first
answer is $100

Answer:

The geometric mean of the measures of the line segments AD and DC is 60/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric mean: BD² = AD×DC

BD = √(AD×DC)

hypotenuse/leg = leg/part

ΔADB: AC/12 = 12/AD

AC×AD = 12×12 = 144

AD = 144/AC

ΔBDC: AC/5 = 5/DC

AC×DC = 5×5 = 25

DC = 25/AC

BD = √[(144/AC)(25/AC)]

BD = (12×5)/AC

BD= 60/AC

Apply Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC

AC² = 12² + 5²

AC² = 144+ 25 = 169

AC = √169 = 13

BD = 60/13

The geometric mean of the measures of the line segments AD and DC is BD = 60/13

Consider the numbers √27 and √39.

kobusy [5.1K]

√27 = 5.2 (to 1 dp)
√39 = 6.2 (to 1 dp)
A. √39 is greater.
B. 6 is the only whole number between the two.
Hope this helped :)
