I really dont no what your question is or your options but if you are trying to see how much is taken out per year you take $118,500 × 6.2%+1.45% and its a little over $7,347.01, and if you are trying to solve per pay check same thing but use 3,000 not 118,500 which is $186.01 taken out

Answer:

$31.00

Explanation:

Jay Ward  has cumulative earnings of $118,000 it means he has already been taxed on his earning on $118,000.

Difference  = $118,500 - $118,000

                   = $500

So on this paycheck only $2,500 of his earnings are taxable for social security tax.

Social security tax rate = 6.2%

Social security tax amount = 6.2% × 500

                                            = 0.062 × 500

                                            = $31

Therefore, the total amount of Social Security tax for this week is $31.00.

kramer

This argument makes sense as some economists suspect that one of the reasons that economies in developing countries grow so slowly is that they don't have well-developed financial markets.

Why do economies in developing countries grow slowly?

The financial market is crucial for facilitating the flow of funds from individuals to investors to promote economic efficiency. It is exceedingly expensive and challenging to establish efficient financial markets in underdeveloped markets in emerging countries, which hurts economic growth.

What causes a country to grow faster than another country?
The labor force in nations having access to new technology and/or a wealth of research and development is frequently more productive than in nations without such access. Economic growth accelerates as productivity rises.

For banquets, meals are placed on plates using a "plating belt" that moves plates past staff who place food on each plate. If pl
White raven [17]
<h2>Answer : Option A) 1 foot/second</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

If we consider that the plates are placed 2 ft apart and there has to be 1800 meals that needs to be delivered in an hour.

so if we multiply 2 ft and 1800 meals that is delivered in 1 hour,we get 2 X 1800 = 3600 meals in an hour.

If we try to accommodate the plates at each ft then there will be 3600 meals delivered in 1 hour.

we know that 1 hour has 3600 seconds in it.

So, here the distance is 1 ft, and speed has to be determined time is 1 hour = 3600 seconds

3600 meals / 3600  seconds = 1 foot per second.

OR 1800 meals set at 2 ft apart in 3600 seconds will give the speed of the belt as 1 foot per second.

(1 ft = speed X 1 hour)

<h2>so, the speed also will be 1 foot per second. </h2>
