Answer:
$6500
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of money invested by Lian be $x
Interest rate = 5.2% per year
interest earned in first year will be 5.2% of amount of money invested by Lian .
(note: since in first year there will be no interest accrued on interest so interest for first year is simple interest )
interest earned in one year if money invested by Lian is $x
= 5.2% of $x (1)
But , it is given in one year she received interest of 338 dollars
so, 338 dollars must be equal to 5.2% of $x
equating $338 with 5.2% of $x , we have
5.2% of x = 338
=> (5.2/100) * x = 338
=>5.2 x = 338*100
=> x = 33800/5.2 = 6500.
Thus, amount of money Lian invested is $6500.
Just multiply the income by .15
1201.87 * .15 = 180.28
He paid $180.28
It could be a trick question though because he didnt have a lot of income so maybe he didn't pay any taxes.. I've heard that's a thing
Answer:
i dont think b is correct because x(x)(x) would be x ^3
