Answer:

  $4125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' represent the additional income Mrs. King must earn. In order for her disposable income to remain the same, we must have ...

  (66000 +a)(1 -0.20) = 66000(1 -0.15)

  66000 +a = 66000(0.85/0.80) = 66000(1 +0.05/0.80)

  a = 66000(5/80) = 4125

Mrs King must earn $4125 more before tax to maintain her after-tax income.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Top-to-bottom, the boxes have this order in the proof: 1, 7, 4, 3, 9, 8, 5, 2, 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic idea is to use the Pythagorean theorem to write two expressions for the length of altitude BD, also called "k", then equate them and simplify the result. This leaves an expression for DC, also called "x", which is replaced by a cosine expression to complete the proof.

Finally, the variations involving other combinations of sides and angles are suggested as being provable in the same way.

A football quarterback goes for a two-point conversion when the ball is within 10 yards of the end zone. During the game, he has
Crank

Answer:

P=0.075,          P=7.5\%

Step-by-step explanation:

We look for the probability that the player fails the first attempt and also fails the second attempt.

We know that the probability that the quarterback fails the first attempt is:

P(1) = 0.5

We know that the probability that the quarterback fails the second attempt after failing the first is:

P(2|1) = 0.15

Then the probability of failure of both attempts is:

P(2|1)=\frac{P(1\ and\ 2)}{P(1)}

P(1\ and\ 2)=P(1)*P(2|1)

P(1\ and\ 2)=0.5*0.15

P(1\ and\ 2)=0.075

The average lethal blood concentration of morphine is estimated to be 2.5 µg/mL with a standard deviation of 0.95 µg/mL. The dat
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The probability associated with the range lethal morphine blood levels is 0.9902.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = lethal blood concentration of morphine.

The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed with parameter <em>μ</em> = 2.5 μg/ mL and <em>σ</em> = 0.95 μg/ mL.

Compute the probability of <em>X</em> within the range 0.05 to 4.95 μg/ mL as follows:

P(0.05

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability associated with the range lethal morphine blood levels is 0.9902.

If ABC is congruent to DEC, angle B = 50 degrees and angle E = 5x x=
Anarel [89]
Because base angles are congruent, both angle A and B are congruent. If the two triangles are congruent, then the base angles are the same, meaning 5x=50*. Divide by 10 and you get the answer of x=5. :) Hope this helps!
