Answer: Long -term capital gain
Step-by-step explanation:
Serena is single, so based on the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, she would pay no capital gains tax on the first $250,000 gain.
Therefore, $300,000 - $250,000 = $50,000
<em>The remaining $50,000 gain is taxable because of her being single and it has been her principal residence for three years.</em>
First, you need to take 40% off of the original price ($68) to find the discount. to do this, multiply 68 by 0.4 (.4 is 40% in decimal form). You should get $27. 20. Next, you subtract this from 68- keep in mind that we found the discount, not the actual price. 68- 27.20= 40.8. Now, we multiply this by 20%, or 0.2- you should get 8.16. Subtract that from 40.8 to get <u>$32.64</u>.
X liters of 10% + (30 - x) liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%
<span>Plugging in the numbers </span>
<span>x(10) + (30 - x)22 = 30(15) </span>
<span>Distribute </span>
<span>10x + 660 - 22x = 450 </span>
<span>Combine like terms </span>
<span>-12x = -210 </span>
<span>Divide both sides by -12 </span>
<span>x = 17.5 </span>
<span>30 - x = 12.5 </span>
<span>17.5 liters of 10% + 12.5 liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%
THE TRICK IS TO JUST USE ONLY ONE VARIABLE</span>
Answer:
<h2>
-27/4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the quadratic polynomial given as g(x) = x²- 5x + 4, the zeros of the quadratic polynomial occurs at g(x) = 0 such that x²- 5x + 4 = 0.
Factorizing the resulting equation to get the roots
x²- 5x + 4 = 0
(x²- x)-(4 x + 4) = 0
x(x-1)-4(x-1) = 0
(x-1)(x-4) = 0
x-1 = 0 and x-4 = 0
x = 1 and x = 4
Since a and b are known to be the root then we can say a = 1 and b =4
Substituting the given values into the equation 1/a+1/b-2 ab
, we will have;
= 1/1 + 1/4 - 2*1*4
= 1 + 1/4 - 8
= 5/4 - 8
Find the Lowest common multiple
= (5-32)/4
= -27/4
<em>Hence the required value is -27/4</em>
