Your gross income is $4,520.00/month. Your deductions are FICA (7.65%), federal tax withholding (11.75%), and state tax withhold

ing (8.5%). Your fixed expenses are 30% of your realized income. You saved 5 months' worth in an emergency fund, placing 75% in a 60-day CD at a 5.25% APR and the rest in a regular savings account at a 3.8% APR. What is the total amount of your emergency fund?

Answer:

$11,406.20

Step-by-step explanation:

7.65% of 4520 is

0.0765(4520) = 345.78.  This is what is withheld for FICA.

11.75% of 4520 is

0.1175(4520) = 531.10.  This is what is withheld for federal tax.

8.5% of 4520 is

0.085(4520) = 384.20.  This is what is withheld for state tax.

This leaves 4520-(345.78+531.10+384.20) = 3258.92 for realized income.

Your fixed expenses are 30% of this; this means you keep 100-30 = 70% of your realized income.  This is

0.7(3258.92) = 2281.24.  This is the monthly amount you have after fixed expenses.

This means 5 months' worth is 5(2281.24) = 11460.20.

1st we need to calculate the take-home net monthly income, 2nd deduct 30% expenses then × 5 mos, then last calculate the rates for emergency fund (EF).

1) $4,520.00/month - [4520 × (FICA (7.65%) + federal tax (11.75%) + state tax (8.5%))]
= 4520 - [4520 × 0.279] = 4520 - 1261.08
= 3258.92

2) less 30% expenses every month = 3258.92-(3258.92×0.30) = 3258.92×0.70 = 2281.24,
2281.24 × 5 mos = 11,406.22

3) EF = CD + savings acct
75% of 11,406.22 = 8554.67 in 60-day CD
25% × 11,406.22 = 2851.56 in savings acct

If they want to know what this EF is at a certain point in the future, that should have been asked. Otherwise the beginning total amt of the EF after saving for 5 mos = $11,406.22

I need help understanding this. SO please help and give explanation
NikAS [45]
So my understanding from this you have to make it y = mx + b so m stands for the slope there’s different ways to find it as shown in the first picture. I’ll try to make another comment since this only lets me take one picture at a time.

Use a proof by contradiction to show that the square root of 3 is national You may use the following fact: For any integer kirke
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1. Let us proof that √3 is an irrational number, using <em>reductio ad absurdum</em>. Assume that \sqrt{3}=\frac{m}{n} where  m and n are non negative integers, and the fraction \frac{m}{n} is irreducible, i.e., the numbers m and n have no common factors.

Now, squaring the equality at the beginning we get that

3=\frac{m^2}{n^2} (1)

which is equivalent to 3n^2=m^2. From this we can deduce that 3 divides the number m^2, and necessarily 3 must divide m. Thus, m=3p, where p is a non negative integer.

Substituting m=3p into (1), we get

3= \frac{9p^2}{n^2}

which is equivalent to

n^2=3p^2.

Thus, 3 divides n^2 and necessarily 3 must divide n. Hence, n=3q where q is a non negative integer.

Notice that

\frac{m}{n} = \frac{3p}{3q} = \frac{p}{q}.

The above equality means that the fraction \frac{m}{n} is reducible, what contradicts our initial assumption. So, \sqrt{3} is irrational.

2. Let us prove now that the multiplication of an integer and a rational number is a rational number. So, r\in\mathbb{Q}, which is equivalent to say that r=\frac{m}{n} where  m and n are non negative integers. Also, assume that k\in\mathbb{Z}. So, we want to prove that k\cdot r\in\mathbb{Z}. Recall that an integer k can be written as

k=\frac{k}{1}.

Then,

k\cdot r = \frac{k}{1}\frac{m}{n} = \frac{mk}{n}.

Notice that the product mk is an integer. Thus, the fraction \frac{mk}{n} is a rational number. Therefore, k\cdot r\in\mathbb{Q}.

3. Let us prove by <em>reductio ad absurdum</em> that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is an irrational number. So, we have x is irrational and p\in\mathbb{Q}.

Write q=x+p and let us suppose that q is a rational number. So, we get that

x=q-p.

But the subtraction or addition of two rational numbers is rational too. Then, the number x must be rational too, which is a clear contradiction with our hypothesis. Therefore, x+p is irrational.

A car dealer recently sold five cars for the following profits: $10,126, $9,999, $12,398, $12,007, and $4,567. What was the mean
Vikentia [17]
Mean or Average is all of the sums divided by how many of the choices are there, so all of 10,126+9,99+12,398+12,007+4567=49097 and divided by all the choices you have which is 5 is 9819.4
