what kind of tax is proposed by those who want a simple tax?
A. Progresssive Tax
B. Flat Tax
C. Tax with only 5 tax brackets
D. Those who want a simple tax want no tax

Answers

Answer 1

Those who want a simple tax want no tax, therefore option D is correct answer.

What is tax?

Taxes are mandatory payments that citizens and businesses must make to the government, whether they are local, regional, or federal. Tax revenues are used to pay for government programmes like Social Security and Medicare as well as public works and services like roads and schools.

Taxes are paid by whoever is responsible for covering their cost, whether that is the taxed entity, such as a business, or the consumers of the goods that the business produces.

From an accounting perspective, all taxes, including payroll taxes, federal and state income taxes, and sales taxes, must be considered.

claire and martin are trying to determine the length of a slug. Claire has a mesuring stick whose markings are 1 cm apart, and Martin has a measuring stick whose markings are 0.1cm apart.

Answers

Claire's measuring stick would make a more precise measurement

How to determine the precise measurement?

The given parameters are:

Claire = 1 cm

Martin = 0.1 cm

The 0.1 cm marking would make a more accurate measurement.

This is so because the length of a slug would most likely be in decimal centimeters

However, this doesn't translate to a precise measurement.

Hence, Claire's measuring stick would make a more precise measurement

find the slope of this line

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Select two points that the red line goes through like (0,-10) and (2,-6).  If I start at the bottom left of the red line, I can see that I am moving to the right and up.  That means that the slope will be positive.  As my x is increasing so is my y.  Starting at point (0,-10) 2 space, but each space counts as 2, so I really move up 4.  Then I check to see how much I moved right.  It is only one space, but again, I am counting by 2s, so I really moved 2 units to the right.

Answers

The minimum production rate of bushels per acre of corn needed this year is 97 for two year's production to reach the goal of 49,100.

How to calculate the minimum production rate?

To calculate the minimum production rate for this year, we must subtract the production rate of the previous year, with what is expected to be obtained this year.

49,100 - 20,000 = 29,100

Then we must divide the minimum that must be obtained by the total area, by the 300 acres that we have, to know how much corresponds to each acre.

29,100 ÷ 300 = 97

According to the above, each acre must produce 97 bushels of corn to reach the goal of 49,100 for both years.

What are continuous functions?


A continuous function in mathematics is one in which a continuous variation (that is, a change without a jump) of the argument causes a continuous variation of the function's value.

What is the calculation for the above solution?

Since G and F are continuous functions,

[tex]\int_{12}^{28}) \, f(x) dx[/tex] = 19

[tex]\int_{12}^{28}) \, f(x) dx[/tex] = 35

Therefore,

I know you said "without making any assumptions," but this one is pretty important. Assuming you mean [tex]\alpha,\beta[/tex] are shape/rate parameters (as opposed to shape/scale), the PDF of [tex]X[/tex] is

[tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{\beta^\alpha}{\Gamma(\alpha)} x^{\alpha - 1} e^{-\beta x} = \dfrac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} x^7 e^{-2x}[/tex]

if [tex]x>0[/tex], and 0 otherwise.

The MGF of [tex]X[/tex] is given by

[tex]\displaystyle M_X(t) = \Bbb E\left[e^{tX}\right] = \int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{tx} f_X(x) \, dx = \frac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} \int_0^\infty x^7 e^{(t-2) x} \, dx[/tex]

Note that the integral converges only when [tex]t<2[/tex].

Define

[tex]I_n = \displaystyle \int_0^\infty x^n e^{(t-2)x} \, dx[/tex]

Integrate by parts, with

[tex]u = x^n \implies du = nx^{n-1} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]dv = e^{(t-2)x} \, dx \implies v = \dfrac1{t-2} e^{(t-2)x}[/tex]

so that

[tex]\displaystyle I_n = uv\bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} - \int_0^\infty v\,du = -\frac n{t-2} \int_0^\infty x^{n-1} e^{(t-2)x} \, dx = -\frac n{t-2} I_{n-1}[/tex]

Note that

[tex]I_0 = \displaystyle \int_0^\infty e^{(t-2)}x \, dx = \frac1{t-2} e^{(t-2)x} \bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} = -\frac1{t-2}[/tex]

By substitution, we have

[tex]I_n = -\dfrac n{t-2} I_{n-1} = (-1)^2 \dfrac{n(n-1)}{(t-2)^2} I_{n-2} = (-1)^3 \dfrac{n(n-1)(n-2)}{(t-2)^3} I_{n-3}[/tex]

and so on, down to

[tex]I_n = (-1)^n \dfrac{n!}{(t-2)^n} I_0 = (-1)^{n+1} \dfrac{n!}{(t-2)^{n+1}}[/tex]

The integral of interest then evaluates to

[tex]\displaystyle I_7 = \int_0^\infty x^7 e^{(t-2) x} \, dx = (-1)^8 \frac{7!}{(t-2)^8} = \dfrac{\Gamma(8)}{(t-2)^8}[/tex]

so the MGF is

[tex]\displaystyle M_X(t) = \frac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} I_7 = \dfrac{2^8}{(t-2)^8} = \left(\dfrac2{t-2}\right)^8 = \boxed{\dfrac1{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^8}}[/tex]

The first moment/expectation is given by the first derivative of [tex]M_X(t)[/tex] at [tex]t=0[/tex].

[tex]\Bbb E[X] = M_x'(0) = \dfrac{8\times\frac12}{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^9}\bigg|_{t=0} = \boxed{4}[/tex]

Variance is defined by

[tex]\Bbb V[X] = \Bbb E\left[(X - \Bbb E[X])^2\right] = \Bbb E[X^2] - \Bbb E[X]^2[/tex]

The second moment is given by the second derivative of the MGF at [tex]t=0[/tex].

[tex]\Bbb E[X^2] = M_x''(0) = \dfrac{8\times9\times\frac1{2^2}}{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^{10}} = 18[/tex]

Then the variance is

[tex]\Bbb V[X] = 18 - 4^2 = \boxed{2}[/tex]

Note that the power series expansion of the MGF is rather easy to find. Its Maclaurin series is

[tex]M_X(t) = \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty \dfrac{M_X^{(k)}(0)}{k!} t^k[/tex]

where [tex]M_X^{(k)}(0)[/tex] is the [tex]k[/tex]-derivative of the MGF evaluated at [tex]t=0[/tex]. This is also the [tex]k[/tex]-th moment of [tex]X[/tex].

Recall that for [tex]|t|<1[/tex],

[tex]\displaystyle \frac1{1-t} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty t^k[/tex]

By differentiating both sides 7 times, we get

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{7!}{(1-t)^8} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty (k+1)(k+2)\cdots(k+7) t^k \implies \displaystyle \frac1{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^8} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{(k+7)!}{k!\,7!\,2^k} t^k[/tex]

Then the [tex]k[/tex]-th moment of [tex]X[/tex] is

[tex]M_X^{(k)}(0) = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}[/tex]

and we obtain the same results as before,

[tex]\Bbb E[X] = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}\bigg|_{k=1} = 4[/tex]

[tex]\Bbb E[X^2] = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}\bigg|_{k=2} = 18[/tex]

and the same variance follows.
