Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$3,000 invested at 6%
$7,000 invested at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Maria had total $10,000 to invest.
Let x be the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.
0.06x
Then she invested the remaining amount at 10% interest rate.
0.10(10,000 - x)
She received a total of $880 in interest.
0.06x + 0.10(10,000 - x) = 880
0.06x + 1000 - 0.10x = 880
-0.04x = 880 - 1000
-0.04x = -120
0.04x = 120
x = 120/0.04
x = $3,000
This is the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.
The remaining amount is
10,000 - 3,000
$7,000
This is the remaining amount that she invested at 10% interest rate.
<span>The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) requires employers to withhold a certain percentage of an employee's income as tax. The categories are:
6.2% as social security tax
1.45% as Medicare tax
0.9% as Medicare surtax for employees earning more than $200,000
In this case, the percentage of tax applied will be 6.2 + 1.45 = 7.65%
The FICA tax will be 165,000 * 0.0765
FICA tax = $12,622.50</span>
Answer:
The second number ($1,541.02) is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 100s place of the second number is a 5 and in the first a 4
Even though they have the same 1000s number 500 is larger that 400
The three numbers have to multiply to 48 in a ratio of 3:2:1
which would be 6:4:2
so 6 inches
