Answer:

Social Security = $186.00
Medicare = $43.50

Explanation:

Since the given rate for Social security is 6.2%, the first week deduction is 6.2% of gross weekly salary, which is $3,000. Hence, the first week deduction for Social Security is given by

Social Security Deduction = 6.2% of $3,000
                                          = 0.062 × 3,000 (Change 6.2% to decimal)
                                          = $186.00

Similarly, since 1.43% is the given rate for medicare, the first week deduction is 1.43% of the gross weekly salary, which is $3,000. Thus, the first week deduction for medicare is given by

Medicare Deduction = 1.43% of $3,000 
                                 = 0.0143 × 3,000
                                 = $43.50

Explanation:

What Candice is saying here basically boils down to 'we don't need to compare this to last year's performance as I want to see positive results not negatives'<u> insinuating that the performance has become worse in the last year.</u>

<u>Regressions in a financial report mean weaker performance over the fiscal year while projections mean that the performance was better.</u>

What were the economic changes that revolutionized manufacturing in the eighteenth century and led to the factory system?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The industrial revolution affected the whole global economy, social relations, and culture.

The industrial revolution changed how goods were manufactured, and it all started with the European accumulation of capital and the invention of the steam engine.

The two major sources of energy were coal and oil that were used to power steam engines that moved machinery using water steam. That led to work specialization and urbanization (people moving into large urban areas).

The industrial revolution first started in northwestern Europe, but it then spread to the US, Russia and Japan. The global economy developed new patterns of global trade and production between nations that produced resources and those that processed them and produced goods.

Exporting economies grew around the world because of the need for exporting both raw materials and food supplies from resource producing nations, and the need for exporting finished goods form industrialized nations.

Help me please!!!! I need your help and answer this question fully by paying attention to the question asked.
Harman [31]
Change what I write. Your teacher knows your style. 

One
People,especially teens, deal with this problem all the time. They may be poor and have to deal with clothing or even cleanliness issues. Who can afford 80 dollar designer jeans? Not everyone. Who can pay attention to makeup when you've had 3 meals in 3 days? That has to affect the way you look at the world. Even if money is not an issue, class is. There are always kids who pick on others because they can't fit in. If a person is lucky, their response is sports or something else that they excel at.  

Two
Everyone experiences stress. Money, exams, dates for important events, clothes, acceptance, parents (if you're a teen), teens (if you are a parent), using the family car responsibly can all contribute to stress. People under severe stress respond differently. Some become short tempered. Some become lethargic. Some turn to drugs which have their own set of symptoms, depending on the drug. One thing is for sure: people on drugs change dramatically. It's unmistakable. 

Four
Well this is pretty personal, especially if you've written on it before. A great coping mechanism is prayer for some people. It really doesn't matter who hears you, or what you say or how you say it. It only matters that you stay still and do it. The main thing is to try and shut yourself down while the stress is at it's highest point. Many older people are really stressed out by health. That especially requires quite times. Stop worrying is another way of coping. Most of the time worry does no good at all. Things causing stress will go away or they won't. Worry isn't going to bring things about any quicker or better.

Which of the following is/are true about specialists? I. Investment banks generally cannot be specialists. II. Specialists are u
Alborosie

Answer:

The correct answers are: I. Investment banks generally cannot be specialists. and V. Specialists help maintain continuous trading.

Explanation:

Stock market specialists execute purchase or sale orders commissioned by a stockbroker. In the same way, when there are not enough buyers or sellers, specialists buy or sell on their own against the market trend. That is, they have the obligation to buy when there is not enough demand and the obligation to sell when there is not enough supply, in order to provide stability and liquidity to the market. Specialists play a role comparable to that of an air traffic controller: just as air traffic controllers are in charge of maintaining order among aircraft in flight, specialists maintain a fair and orderly market in the values assigned to them.
