Kim is a single woman in her mid-20s working while taking college credits to earn a bachelors degree. She is financing her education herself through both her income and taking out student loans. Her earnings in 2010 were $30,000 before taxes. She paid $5000 intuition and paid $350 interest on her student loan. In filing her state tax return form Kim takes a deduction for tuition paid and the interest paid on the loan. In taking these two deductions by how much did she lower taxable income? What is her taxable income now? What is her marginal tax rate? What will she owe in taxes for 2010?
Answers
Less: Deductions - 5,000 + 350 = 5,350
New taxable income - 24,650
Multiply: Marginal tax rate - 15%
Tax - 3,697.50
1.) She lowered her taxable income by 5,350.
2.) Her taxable income now is 24,650.
3.) Her taxable income falls under the income range of 8,375 - 34,000, so her marginal tax rate is 15%.
4.) She will have to pay 3,697.50 for her tax.

The function F(x) = log0.5 x is increasing. The answer is B. False. Just finished taking the quiz I had guessed.
A. True
B. False
Answers
Answer:
The statement is false
B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: [tex]f(x)=\log_{0.5}x[/tex]
Increasing function.
Log function:
[tex]y=\log_ax[/tex]
If 0<a<1 then y is decreasing function.
If a>1 then y is increasing function.
Now, we compare the given function
[tex]\log_ax\rightarrow \log_{0.5}x[/tex]
a=0.5
0.5<1
If 0<a<1 then y is decreasing function.
Therefore, f(x) is decreasing. But we are given f(x) is increasing.
Hence, The statement is false

Find the present value of the annuity.
Amount Per Payment: $6,225
Payment at End of Each: Quarter
Number of Years: 6
Interest Rate: 8%
Compounded: Quarterly
Answers
where
[tex]PV[/tex] is the present value
[tex]P[/tex] is the periodic payment
[tex]r[/tex] is the interest rate in decimal form
[tex]n[/tex] is the number of times the interest is compounded per year
[tex]k[/tex] is the number of payments per year
[tex]t[/tex] is the number of years
We know for our problem that [tex]P=6225[/tex] and [tex]t=6[/tex]. To convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide it by 100%:
[tex]r= \frac{8}{100} [/tex]
[tex]r=0.08[/tex]
Since the interest is compounded quarterly, it is compounded 4 times per year, so [tex]n=4[/tex]. Similarly, since the payment is made at the end of each quarter, it is made 4 times per year; therefore, [tex]k=4[/tex].
Lets replace the values in our formula:
[tex]PV=P[ \frac{1-(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{(-kt)} }{ \frac{r}{n} }] [/tex]
[tex]PV=6225[ \frac{1-(1+ \frac{0.08}{4})^{(-(4)(6)} }{ \frac{0.08}{4} }] [/tex]
[tex]PV=117739.19[/tex]
We can conclude that the present value of the annuity is $117,739.19
There are 2,000 eligible voters in a precinct. 548 of the voters are randomly selected and asked whether they planned to vote for the democratic incumbent or the republican challenger. of the 548 surveyed, 474 said they would vote for the democratic incumbent. using the 0.99 confidence coefficient, what are the confidence limits for the proportion that plan to vote for the democratic incumbent?
Answers
Point estimate, p = 474/548 = 0.865 or 86.5%

Confidence limits = p +/- Z*Sqrt [p(1-p)/n] = 0.865 +/- 2.58 Sqrt [0.865(1-0865)/548] = 0.865 +/- 0.0378 = (0.8272,0.9028) or (82.72%,90.28)

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f on the given interval. f(x) = 6x3 − 9x2 − 108x + 6, [−3, 4]
Answers
The absolute minimum on the interval is -237 at x=3.
The absolute maximum on the interval is 138 at x=-2.
Answer:
The absolute maximum of f(x) on [-3, 4] is 138 and the absolute minimum of f(x) on [-3, 4] is -237.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the absolute extrema values of [tex]f(x) = 6x^3 - 9x^2 - 108x + 6[/tex] on the closed interval [−3, 4] you must:
1. Locate all critical values. We need to find the derivative of the function and set it equal to zero.
[tex]\frac{d}{dx}f(x)= \frac{d}{dx}\left(6x^3-9x^2-108x+6\right)=\\\\f'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(6x^3\right)-\frac{d}{dx}\left(9x^2\right)-\frac{d}{dx}\left(108x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(6\right)\\\\f'(x)=18x^2-18x-108[/tex]
[tex]18x^2-18x-108=0\\18\left(x^2-x-6\right)=0\\18\left(x+2\right)\left(x-3\right)=0\\\\\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}\\x=-2,\:x=3[/tex]
2. Evaluate f(x) at all the critical values and also at the two values -3 and 4
[tex]\left\begin{array}{cc}x&f(x)\\-3&87\\-2&138\\3&-237\\4&-186\end{array}\right[/tex]
3. The absolute maximum of f(x) on [-3, 4] will be the largest number found in Step 2, while the absolute minimum of f(x) on [-3, 4] will be the smallest number found in Step 2.
Therefore,
The absolute maximum of f(x) on [-3, 4] is 138 and the absolute minimum of f(x) on [-3, 4] is -237.

solve the system of equations 5x-2y=88 3x+4y=58 show all work
Answers
5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y = 58
Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:
10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58
Adding the two equations, we get:
10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x = 18
Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:
5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1

Identify the figure shown and find its surface area. Explain how you found your answer.

To find the surface area you need to first find the areas of the triangles, then the square, in the end you have to add them together.
Since we know the area of a triangle is 1/2bh we know that one if the triangle in the figure is
9*16/2=72(in^2)
there are four of these so we multiply it by 4
4*72=288(in^2 aka squared inches)
Then we need to find the area of the square. side * side=9*9=81 (in^2)
Add them together we get the surface area.

Solution:
Radius of cylindrical soup can= 3.5 cm
Height of cylindrical soup can= 6 cm
Area of cylinder =2πrh
So, Area of label of cylindrical soup can=2πrh
Plugging in the value of r and h in the formula
Area of label=2*π*3.5*6

Area=2*π*21
Area=42π

Step-by-step explanation:
Given : [tex]\frac{(x -5)^{2}}{7} - \frac{(y+3)^{2}}{9} = 1.[/tex] is shifted to the right by 4 units and upward by 3 units
To find : New center of the hyperbola .
Solution : We have given
[tex]\frac{(x -5)^{2}}{7} - \frac{(y+3)^{2}}{9} = 1.[/tex]
Center of hyperbola is ( 5 , -3)
By the transformation rule f(x) →→ f(x -h) + k it mean f(x) is shifted to right by h unit and k unit up.
Then Center of hyperbola is shifted to the right by 4 units and upward by 3 units.
( 5 , -3) →→ (5 + 4 , -3 + 3
( 5 , -3) →→ ( 9 ,0)
Therefore, new center is ( 9 ,0).
Find the length of AB , given that DB is a median of the triangle and AC = 24.
Answers
Answer:
AB = 12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
DB is the median of the triangle.
AC = 24 units
Property of median of a triangle:
A median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.Thus, a median divides the side of triangle in two equal parts.Thus, DB divides AC in two equal parts.
Thus, we could say:
AB = BC
We have to find the length of AB.
[tex]\text{AB} = \displaystyle\frac{AC}{2} = \frac{24}{2} = 12\text{ units}[/tex]
Thus, AB is 12 units.
