HELP PLEASE AND THANK YOU!! Two sisters, Julia and Anna, both trade stocks online to supplement their pensions. In 2015 Julia ea

rned $20,000 more than Anna from her trading. For 2015 neither of them reported their investment income to the Canada Revenue Agency. In 2016 Julia made $30,000 more from trading than she had the year before, and Anna made $10,000 more than she had the year before. For 2016 both declared their trading income and paid 50% of it in tax. Their combined income after tax from trading in 2016 was $80,000. How much did Julia make from trading in 2015?

Suppose Julia made x dollars in 2015, and Anna made y dollars.
in 2016, Julia made (x+30,000) and Anna made (y+10,000)
In 2016, after they paid 50% tax, they still had 80,000, which means before tax they had a total of 160,000, so
(x+30,000)+(y+10,000)=160,000
simplify: x+y=120,000
in 2015, Julia earned 20,000 more than Anna, so x=y+20,000. Plug it in the above equation: y+20,000+y=120,000
y=50,000
x=y+20,000=70,000
Julia made 70,000 dollars in 2015.

Trevor has two fraction models, each divided into equal-sized sections. The
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

I will answer in a general way because the options are not given.

We know that the area of model A is smaller than the area of model B.

For model A, we have 72 shaded sections, out of 100.

Then the quotient of model A is:

72/100 = 0.72

For model B we have 10 sections, and x shaded ones.

Because model B is greater than model A, we know that:

x/10 should be larger than 72/100

then we have the inequality:

x/10 > 0.72

x > 0.72*10

x > 7.2

And we can not have more than 10 shaded sections (because there is a total of 10 sections) then:

10 ≥ x > 7.2

Then x can be any whole number in that interval.

the possible values of x are:

x = 8

x = 9

x = 10

A customer ordered a product online for $299 and was charged an additional $10 for shipping and handling. The customer received
swat32

Answer:

$192.4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we'll work out what the customer had to pay before tax.

That's

299+10-99-25\\=185(USD)

4% of 185 is 7.4,

So the customer paid

185+7.4\\=192.4(USD)
