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

Simplify the expression by combining like terms if possible. If not possible select already simplified. 4a^2+2a+4a^2-5
vichka [17]
So the expression is: 4 a^{2} + 2a + 4 a^{2} - 5

You can combine like terms, which are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power. That means you can combine the two 4 a^{2}. 4 a^{2} + 4 a^{2} = 8 a^{2} The other terms can't be combined.

Your final answer should be 8 a^{2} +2a-5.

Help me I have no idea how to do 18
sleet_krkn [62]

First, subtract px2 from both sides.

Now you have:

x3 - px2 = (1 - p) x1

Next, divide both sides by (1 - p)

So now you have

x3 - px2/(1 - p) = x1

...as your final answer


*You can decide if you want to leave the parenthesis in your final answer, I left them there so it could be visible where I put them. :)

Use this graph of velocity vs. time for two objects to answer the question.
Lynna [10]

Using derivatives, it is found that the correct option is:

A. Object C has an acceleration that is greater than the acceleration for D.

The acceleration is the <u>derivative of the velocity</u>, given by change in velocity divided by change in time, that is:

a = \frac{\Delta_v}{\Delta_t}

In this problem:

  • The change in time for objects C and T is the same.
  • The <u>change in velocity for object C is greater</u>, thus, it has a greater acceleration, and the correct option is:

A. Object C has an acceleration that is greater than the acceleration for D.
