Imagine the country is made up of 100 households. The federal government needs to collect $800,000 in income taxes to be able to function. The population consists of 6

groups:

• Group A: 20 households that earn $12,000 each

Group B: 20 households that earn $29.000 each

• Group C: 20 households that earn $50,000 each

Group D: 20 households that earn $79.000 each

• Group E: 15 households that earn $129.000 each

Group F: 5 households that earn $295,000 each

This scenario is roughly proportional to the actual United States population and tax

needs. We'll consider a modified flat-tax plan, where everyone only pays taxes on

any income over $20,000. So, Everyone in group A will pay no taxes. Everyone in

group B will pay taxes only on $9.000. Determine what flat tax rate (would be

necessary to collect enough money in this modified system. Round your answer to

the nearest tenth of a percent.

Match the following terms with their definitions. 1. bisector of a segment ray ba and ray bc are opposite rays if a, b, and c are collinear and b (the endpoint of both rays) is between a and c. 2. opposite rays a ray, , is the set of points beginning at point a and going infinitely in the direction of point b. 3. collinear points a line or segment that intersects the segment at its midpoint. 4. betweenness of points a set of two or more points all on the same line. 5. ray the distance between the endpoints of a segment. 6. space point b is between a and c if a, b, and c are collinear and the equation ab + bc = ac is true, where ab, bc, and ac are the distances between points a and b, b and c, and a and c, respectively. 7. midpoint of a segment a set of two or more points all on the same plane. 8. coplanar points the point on a segment that divides the segment into two equal segments. 9. length of a segment the set of all possible points. 10. line segment the set of two different endpoints and all points between them.
