Danny paid $9.75 per pound!
Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
- Bert earns $35,000 gross annual salary
- Any amounts earned up to $20,000 are taxed at x%
- Any amounts earned beyond $20,000 are taxed at 20%
- Bert pays $4,500 per annum in income tax
To find x
Amount earned beyond $20,000
= $35,000 - $20,000
= $15,000
That is the amount to be taxed at 20%
Therefore,
x% × 20000 + 20% × 15000 = 4500
200x + 3000 = 4500
200x = 4500 - 3000
200x = 1500
x = 1500/200
x = 7.5
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5-3x=-7
1) you subtract the 5 from both sides
-3x=-12
2) then you divide both sides by -3
x=4
