A part-time bookkeeper received two W-2 forms for the work she did last year, and she is trying to figure out her taxable income so that she can file her federal income tax return. On the first W-2 form, the figure in box 1 was $2612.98, while on the second W-2 form, the figure in box 1 was $6587.63, and the bookkeeper had no other income last year. She will claim herself as an exemption for $3650 and file with the Single filing status, using the standard deduction of $5700. Part I: What was the bookkeeper's gross income last year?

Part II: What is the sum of the amounts of the bookkeeper's standard deduction and exemption?

Part III: What was the bookkeeper's taxable income last year?

=====================================

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer

- 70

this is the answer for you hope it

i believe the correct answer is option 4.principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

which statement correctly defines principalities in northern asia in the 1200s? principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

hope i could ! : )
