Employees in 2012 paid 4.2% of their gross wages toward social security (FICA tax), while employers paid another 6.2%. How much
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

$3066

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that employees in 2012 paid 4.2% of their gross wages toward social security (FICA tax), while employers paid another 6.2%. We are asked to find the amount paid by an employee earning $73,000 per year toward social security.

To find the amount paid by an employee with annual gross earnings of $73,000, we need to find 4.2% of $73,000.

\text{Amount paid by the employee}=\$73,000\times \frac{4.2}{100}

\text{Amount paid by the employee}=\$730\times \frac{4.2}{1}

\text{Amount paid by the employee}=\$3066

Therefore, the employee will pay $3066 toward social security out of their gross wages.

Jared started a new job. On the first day he had orientation and worked for 2 hours. On the second day he trained for 4 hours. A
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Jared worked 11 days as full 8-hour days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

First day = 2 h

Second day = 4 h

After that = 8 h each day    

Since his paycheck shows 94 hours of work, we can find the number of days that he works 8-hour day:

94 h = 2 h + 4 h + 8 h*x

Where x is the number of days that he works 8-hours.

8 h*x = 88 h

x = \frac{88 h}{8 h} = 11

 

Therefore, Jared worked 11 days as full 8-hour days.

I hope it helps you!
