Imagine the country is made up of 100 households. The federal government needs to collect $800,000 in income taxes to be able to function. The population consists of 6

groups:

• Group A: 20 households that earn $12,000 each

Group B: 20 households that earn $29.000 each

• Group C: 20 households that earn $50,000 each

Group D: 20 households that earn $79.000 each

• Group E: 15 households that earn $129.000 each

Group F: 5 households that earn $295,000 each

This scenario is roughly proportional to the actual United States population and tax

needs. We'll consider a modified flat-tax plan, where everyone only pays taxes on

any income over $20,000. So, Everyone in group A will pay no taxes. Everyone in

group B will pay taxes only on $9.000. Determine what flat tax rate (would be

necessary to collect enough money in this modified system. Round your answer to

the nearest tenth of a percent.

Part a what is the area of triangle i? show your calculation. part b triangles i and ii are congruent (of the same size and shape). what is the total area of triangles i and ii? show your calculation. part c what is the area of rectangle i? show your calculation. part d what is the area of rectangle ii? show your calculation. part e rectangles i and iii have the same size and shape. what is the total area of rectangles i and iii? show your calculation. part f what is the total area of all the rectangles? show your calculation. part g what areas do you need to know to find the surface area of the prism? part h what is the surface area of the prism? show your calculation. part i read this statement: “if you multiply the area of one rectangle in the figure by 3, you’ll get the total area of the rectangles.” is this statement true or false? why? part j read this statement: “if you multiply the area of one triangle in the figure by 2, you’ll get the total area of the triangles.” is this statement true or false? why?
