An employee does not pay tax on the first $4000 of earnings and then 25% tax on the rest of earnings. If he wants to have $20000 net of tax earnings does he need

$68000

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax free earning = first 4000

Tax on remaining amount = 25%

Total earning in other to have $20000 net of tax earning :

Net of tax = tax free earning + (25% * remaining amount)

Let remaining amount = x

20000 = 4000 + (0.25 * x)

20000 = 4000 + 0.25x

20000 - 4000 = 0.25x

16000 = 0.25x

x = 16000 / 0.25

x = 64000

Hence,

Total earning should be :

Tax free earning + roaming amount

4000 + 64000

= $68000

i don't even know man. edge inuity be messing with us. i had to ask a question too.

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
