A family has $41,250 of taxable income. What is the tax rate for the $3,600 they earned over $37,650?

(1 point)
The tax rate for the $3,600 of taxable income earned over $37,650 is
%.

Answer 1

I can’t see the graph you mention. Could you either attach the image or tell me the y-value (tax rate) on the piece of the graph that covers incomes just above $37,650?

How to find it from the graph:
- If that segment is horizontal, read the y-value there (e.g., 0.15 = 15%).
- If that segment is sloped, compute the slope = (change in y) / (change in x) using two points on that segment, then convert to a percent.

If you upload the graph or tell me the y-value or two points on the relevant segment, I’ll give the exact percent.
