What can I do to get my experimental probability closer to the theoretical probability?

If you have learned how to find the line of best fit manually, then you can do it that way. Perhaps you may want to just find a line that can connect at least two of the points and I believe that that line will be able to represent the other points because, in general, the points are pretty close to one another.

If you don't want to do it manually and have a graphing calculator (which I recommend) then you can use that to find the line of best fit (and if you want then you can see how precise your points are with your r^2 value). Or there is a website (http://illuminations.nctm.org/Activity.aspx?id=4186), which you can use to help you to find the equation of that particular line.

Once you have that done, then you can substitute 2009 for the x value in the equation and then see what y value the equation produces. That will then be your answer :)

If you are self-employed, you don't have to pay FICA on all your salary, just on 92.35% of it. If your salary is $128,255 what i

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The amount that I am required to pay monthly as FICA if my salary remains constant is $18,121.85¢

Step-by-step explanation:

Federal insurance contributions act is a law that mandates all employers of labour to withhold medicare and certain taxes from the wages that are paid to employees or workers. These taxes are remitted to the government later which is then used for the provision of basic amenities and quality health care.

Since, I am only required by law to pay FICA on only 92.35% of my monthly salary, we need to calculate the the actual amount that makes up 92.35 percent of my monthly salary.

If $128,255 is my current monthly salary, then 92.35% of it will be:

92.35/100 × 128,255

= 0.9235 × 128,255

= $118,443.49¢

This is the part of his monthly salary that he is required by law to pay FICA on.

Then, if FICA is 15.3% of a worker's taxable income, then I am required to pay 15.3% of the taxable $118,443.49¢ since I am self employed and mustn't pay it on the entire $128,255 that I earn monthly.

My monthly FICA contribution is then:

15.3/100 × 118,443.49

= 0.153 × 118,443.49

= $18,121.85¢.

Therefore, if my salary remains constant, the amount that I am required by law to pay monthly as FICA is $18,121.85

PLEASE HELP!!! I NEED HELP ASAP

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

y = 6x

Explanation:

This question is asking you to write a linear equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis) is visibly 0. As for the slope, you can take two points, I'll use (0,0) and (0.1,0.6) to calculate it.

Slope = y - y/x- x

Slope = (0.6 - 0)/(0.1 - 0) = 0.6/0.1 = 6

Plug in 0 for b and 6 for m and you have an equation.

y = 6x + 0

y = 6x

Find the LCM of the following. A. 28,42,35 B. 48,72,96 C. 36, 44

Ne4ueva [31]

28/2= 14 42/2= 21 35/7= 5

14/ 2= 7 21/3= 7

28= 2^2 × 7

42= 2 × 3 × 7

35= 7 × 5

LCM= 420

48/2= 24. 72/2= 36. 96/3= 32

24/2= 12. 36/3= 12. 32/2= 16

12/3= 4. 12/3= 4. 16/2= 8

4/2= 2. 4/2= 2. 8/2= 4

4/2= 2

48= 2^4 × 3

72= 2^3 × 3^2

96= 2^5 × 3

LCM= 288

36/3= 12. 44/2= 22

12/3= 4. 22/2= 11

4/2= 2

36= 3^2 × 2^2

44= 2^2 × 11

LCM= 396
