Answer:
compare the distance between the lines at one point to the distance between the lines at another point
Step-by-step explanation:
You can construct perpendiculars at different points and compare the distance between the lines at those perpendiculars. The distance between parallel lines is the same everywhere.

Answer:
$3400
Step-by-step explanation:
The way these tax tables are structured, you pay 3% on the first $10,000, 5% on the next $40,000, and 5.5% on the remaining $20,000 above $50,000.
tax = 0.03·10,000 +0.05·(50,000 -10,000) +0.055·(70,000 -50000)
= 300 + 2000 +1100
= 3400 . . . dollars
The tax owed on $70,000 is $3,400.

<em>Additional comment</em>
I like to rewrite this sort of table to a different format:
- 3% of income . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . applies for income ≤ 10,000
- (5% of income) -$200 . . . . . . . . applies for 10,000 < income ≤ 50,000
- (5.5% of income) -$450 . . . . . . .applies for 50,000 < income ≤ 100,000
For an income of $70,000, the tax computation using this form is one multiplication and one addition, rather than 3 multiplications and 4 additions as used when navigating the given table.
