1.$186.63

2.$145.57

3.$7.27 more

4.65.65%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike has two part time jobs.

Job 1: Ice-cream store

Number of hours worked= 8.5 hours

Payment per hour=$10.55

Job 2: Movie theater

Number of hours worked=7 hours

Payment per hour=$13.85

1. Earnings per week before taxes

⇒For job 1 will be; the product of hours worked and hourly payments

= 8.5×$10.55 =$89.68

⇒For job 2 will be;

=7×$13.85=$96.95

Total=$89.68+$96.95=$186.63

2.  Calculate amount taken as tax

    Find 22% of the amount earned

   = 22/100 * 186.63 =$41.06

  Remaining amount after tax will be;

   =$186.63-$41.06=$145.57

3.

The job that Mike earns the most before taxes is  at the Movie theater.

How much more will be; Earnings at Movie theater-Earnings at the Ice-cream store

=$96.95-$89.68

=$7.27 more

4.

After paying taxes the amount remaining is $145.57

After spending $50 on entertainment,the amount left will be;

$145.57-$50=$95.57

so to find the percent of remaining amount of Mike's paycheck will be;

95.57/145.57 *100=65.65%

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes. 

step-by-step explanation:

in if you ask questions, the points are taken from your total and given to the one who answered it..

so if i have 30 points and i ask a question for 5 points, then when someone asks a question i will lose 5 points and the answerer earns 5
