A man earned wages of $36,300, received $2200 in interest from a savings account, and contributed $2700 to a tax-deferred retirement plan. He was entitled to a personal exemption of $4050 and a standard deduction of S6300. The interest on his home mortgage was $7800, he contributed $2900 to charity, and he paid $1750 in state taxes. Find his gross income, adjusted gross income, and taxable income Base the taxable income on the greater of a standard deduction or an itemized

deduction

Gross income = $38500

Adjusted gross income = $35800

Taxable income = $13000

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Gross income = wages + interest received

Gross income = $36,300 + $2200

Gross income = $38500

2. Adjusted gross income = Gross income - adjustments

Adjusted gross income = $38500 - $2700

Adjusted gross income = $35800

3. Taxable income = adjusted income - (exemption + deductions)

Taxable income = $35800 - ($4050 + $6300 + $7800 + $2900 + $1750)

Taxable income = $35800 - $22800

Taxable income = $13000

  7.25 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of weights is the mean weight times the number of apples.

  sum of 9 = 7.5×9 = 67.5 . . . ounces

  sum of 3 = 8×3 = 24 . . . ounces

Then the sum of the weights of the remaining 6 is ...

  67.5 -24 = 43.5 . . . ounces

The mean weight of those 6 is ...

  (total weight of 6)/6 = mean weight of 6

  (43.5 oz)/(6) = 7.25 oz

The mean weight of the other 6 is 7.25 oz.

Additional comment

If some have an average weight that is greater than the mean of all, the remaining must have an average weight that is less than the mean of all.
