Write the following expression and then simplify. 5 less than the the product of 6 and 7

To represent the product of 6 and 7, we could use (6)(7). To represent 5 less than this, we will need to subtract 5 from the expression. Using this, the expression would look like:

To simplify it, we should follow the order of operations. First, we will need to do the multiplication, and then we can do the subtraction. (6)(7) is equal to 42. Subtracting 5 from 42, we get 37. Thus, the simplification leads to 37.

$3720

step-by-step explanation:

taxable income = $31000

as per the 2018-2019 us tax bracket, the tax rate is 12% for an individual whose taxable income is between $9,526 to $38,700.

so, the tax to be paid by him = 12% of 31000

= 0.12 * 31000     [12% converted to decimal as 0.12]

= $3720
