Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

a. $39,077.60

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Brendon had total job benefits of $39,500 last year. Brendon purchased 12 shirts for work during the year at a cost of $23.95 each.

To find Brendon's total employment compensation, we will subtract total expenses from Brendon's total job benefits.

Let us find the cost of 12 shirts by multiplying $23.95 by 12.

\text{Amount spent on 12 shirts}=12* \$23.95

\text{Amount spent on 12 shirts}=\$287.40

To find the total expenses we will add the cost of training in cost of 12 shirts.

\text{Brendon's total expenses}=\$287.40+\$135

\text{Brendon's total expenses}=\$422.40

Let us subtract total expenses from total job benefits.

\text{Brendon’s total employment compensation last year}=\$39,500-\$422.40

\text{Brendon’s total employment compensation last year}=\$39,077.60

Therefore, Brendon’s total employment compensation last year was $39,077.60 and option 'a' is the correct choice.

Answer 2
Answer: 39,500 - (12 * 23.95) - 135 = 39,077.60

Rex paid $250 in taxes to the school district that he lives in this year. This year's taxes were a 12% increase from last year. What did Rex pay in school taxes last year?

Answers

Answer:

$223.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year the amount of taxes was x, an unknown amount. That was 100% of last year's tax cost.

This year, taxes went up by 12%, so this year the taxes are 112% of what they were last year. This year the taxes were 112% of x, and they were $250.

112% of x = 250

1.12x = 250

x = 250/1.12

x = 223.21

Answer: $223.21
