13. estimate how much money jonah will make in an 8hr work day if he makes $7.59 per hour but 10% must go to taxes. show your work.

The hourly rate of $7.59 per hour multiplied by hours gives the gross wages earned. If 10% are taken for taxes then 90% are take home wages.

(0.9)*(8 hr/day) * (7.59 $/hr ) = 54.65 $/day take home pay

30 people weigh 160 pounds or more

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
