To determine the amount of that Mr. Benson needs to pay for his social security tax, we just have to multiply his gross pay, 789.18 with the decimal equivalent for the percent, 6.2%.
                          amount for social security tax = 789.18 x (0.062) 
                                          = 48.93
Therefore, Mr. Benson needs to pay approximately 48.93 for social security.

Find the unit rate.<br> 48 cupcakes in 6 boxes=cupcakes per box
natka813 [3]

Answer: 8 cupcakes per box

Step-by-step explanation: "Per box" means in 1 box, so we can rewrite the given statement using fractions as

<em>48 cupcakes/6 boxes</em> = <em>__ cupcakes/1 box</em>.

To find out what goes in the blank, notice that we

have a 1 in the denominator of our second fraction.

So we want to find a fraction that is equivalent

to 48/6 that has a 1 in the denominator.

If we divide the numerator and denominator of 48/6 by 6,

we get the equivalent fraction 8/1 or <em>8 cupcakes/1 box</em>.

So now we have <em>8 cupcakes/1 box = __cupcakes/1 box</em>.

So an 8 must go in the blank which means that the unit rate

for 48 cupcakes in 6 boxes is <em>8 cupcakes per box</em>.

Which equation should be used to find the volume of the figure?​
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for finding the volume of a pyramid is lwh/3. in this case the length or l is 6, the width or w is 4 and the height or h is 8, multiply all of those and then multiply the product of that by 1/3 or divide lwh by 3, either way youll get the same thing. the 10 inches is useless for finding the volume btw

Please mark as brainliest :)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kompoz [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a sphere (= a ball) =

4/3 × pi × r³

r (radius) is half of the diameter = 8.8/2 = 4.4 in

so, one ball has a volume of

4/3 × pi × (4.4)³ = 4/3 × pi × 85,184 = 113.5786667...×pi

6 balls are 6 times

113.5786667... × pi × 6 = 681.472...×pi in³
