An urban planner had a taxable income of $52,950 last year. if he paid 10% of his income between $0 and $8350, 15% of his income between $8350 and $33,950, and 25% of his income between $33,950 and $52,950 in federal income tax, how much did the urban planner pay in federal income tax last year?

Add up the products of tax rate and applicable amount

10%×$8350 + 15%×(33950 -8350) + 25%×(52950 -33950)

= $835 + 3,840 + 4,750

= $9425

The planner paid $9,425 in taxes last year.

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
