have a test tomorrow need someone to calculate these answers just to see if i got them right. thanks

Pat has a gross income of €1,800 per month. the standard rate of tax is 20%, the higher rate of tax is 41% and the standard rate cut off point is €1,200. Calculate:

i'm trying to have a discussion about good science audio, and anon this

what is the algorithm they use to get all those evocatives captchas?

just a random bunch:
oracling mutton, Otto Mattice, eluding motiles, millions century, Roth elated, security radiators, goal coherence, Quakers Cor., their lollygags, them scialoia, scrounger lid, lavishest traced

i wonder - if they just had a body of fancy writing it would still get the most common words and not the pretty ones. so can you think of the algorithm/system we're dealing with here, scientists?
