Answer:

Option A. $186.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Ty is paid this week = $3,000

social security tax ( 6.2%) and medicare tax (1.45%) is called FICA tax, but we have to calculate only social security tax for the weekly pay.

Therefore,

6.2% of 3,000 = \frac{6.2}{100} ×  3000

= 0.062 × 3000 = 186.00

The total amount of social security tax for this week is $186.00

Option A. $186.00

You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 downpayment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate
DanielleElmas [232]

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000 ⇒ 3rd

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest, including principal sum is:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} , where

  • A is the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
  • P is the principal investment amount  
  • r is the annual interest rate (decimal)
  • n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t
  • t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account

∴ P = 2000

∵ You want to save for $3,000

∴ A = 3000

∵ The account has an interest rate of 4% per year and is

   compounded monthly

∴ r = 4% = 4 ÷ 100 = 0.04

∴ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly

- Substitute all of these values in the formula above to find t

∵ 3000=2000(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12t}

- Divide both sides by 2000

∴ 1.5=(1+\frac{1}{300})^{12t}

∴ 1.5=(1\frac{1}{300})^{12t}

- Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

∴ (1.5)=(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}

- Insert ㏒ for both sides

∴ log(1.5)=log(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}

- Remember log(a)^{n}=nlog(a)

∴ log(1.5)=(12t)log(\frac{301}{300})

- Divide both sides by log(\frac{301}{300})

∴ 121.84 = 12 t

- Divide both sides by 12

∴ 10.155 = t

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000
