Answer:

$133.33

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with such a problem we can use the Rule of Three. This rule is basically used in order to find the missing value when dealing with a ratio. Like so...

12% of final price  <======>   $16

100% of final price   <=====>   x

Now we multiply the two available diagonal values together and divide by the last value in order to get the value of the variable, which in this case would be the original price in dollars

(100 * 16) / 12 = x

1600 / 12 = x

133.33 = x

Finally, we can see that the original price of the item was $133.33

Marlene's taxable income is $95,000. Use this tax schedule to calculate the total amount she owes in taxes. $12,888.75
Ipatiy [6.2K]
Marlene owes a total of $20,710.75 in taxes.

If we are using the same tax schedule then $95,000 belongs to this bracket:
Over -        But not over -                                             of the excess over -
$77,100     but not over $160,850.. 15,698.75 plus 28%            77,100

Get the 28% of the difference between $95,000 and $77,100:
$95,000 - $77,100 = $17,900
$17,900 * .28 = $5,012

$15,698.75 + $5,012 = $20,710.75

PLEASE HELP
Eva8 [605]

Answer: 51 Children and 36 Adults.

Step-by-step explanation: Let's call x the number of children admitted and call z the number of adults admitted.

We know that x+z= 87

We also know that 3.25x+3.5z= 291.75.

We want to find the value of x and z. Then we solve the system of equations:

Multiply the first equation by -3.5 and add it to the second equation:

-3.5x-3.5z= -304.5

3.25x+3.5z= 291.75

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-0.25x=-12.75

x= -42.75 ÷ -0.25

x=51

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now we substitute the value of x in the first equation and solve for the variable z

51+z=87

z=87-51

z= 36

Omg took me like 10 minutes to calculate would appreciate brainliest. Have a wonderful day.
