Answer:

about $171,400

Step-by-step explanation:

William's total monthly debt is ...

$1012.84 +579.13 +250 +300 = 2141.97

On an annual basis, this is ...

12 × $2141.97 = $25,703.64

This will be 15% of (25703.64/0.15) = $171,357.60.

William's new annual salary should be about $171,400 to keep his debt ratio at the recommended 15%.

Additional comment

A debt ratio of 15% is a pretty aggressive target. Most mortgage lenders like to see the "front end" ratio (housing expense) less than 28%, and the "back end" ratio (all debt) less than 36%.

A florist arranges 4 flower arrangements in 92 minutes.

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 9 \ arrangements }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup:

$\frac{arrangements}{minutes} =\frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We know that the florist can arrange 4 in 92 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We don't know how many the florist can arrange in 207 minutes, so we say x arrangements can be completed in 207 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{ x \ arrangements}{ 207 \ minutes}$

$\frac{4}{92} =\frac{x}{207}$

Solve for x by isolating it on one side of the proportion.

x is being divided by 207. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the proportion by 207.

$207*\frac{4}{92}=\frac{x}{207}*207$

$207*\frac{4}{92}=x$

$207*0.0434782609=x$

$9=x$

The florist can arrange 9 arrangements in 207 minutes.
