Answer: A) $1142.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Important Rule: Gross pay - Deduction

  • Gross pay = 1500                              
  • SS Tax = 6.2% <u>converts --></u> .062    
  • Medicare = 1.45% <u>converts --></u> .0145
  • Income = 16.2% <u>converts --></u> .162

NOW MULTIPLY

(1500)(0.62) = 93

(1500)(.0145) = 21.75

(1500)(.162) = 243

ADD ALL OF THESE TOGETHER

243 + 21.75 + 93 = 357.75 [Total Deduction is 357.75]

Remember that Gross Pay minus Deduction equals our Answer!

1500 - 357.75 = $1142.25

<em>Hope I helped you understand!</em>

Answer:

$1,142.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross = $1500

Deductions = 6.2% + 1.45% + 16.2% = 23.85%

100% - 23.85% = 76.15%

100% = 1500

76.15$ = x

By cross multiplication

100x = 1500 * 76.15

x = $1,142.25

A banner is in the shape of a right triangle. the area is 63 inches. The height of the banner is 4 in less than twice the width
Blizzard [7]
Area=1/2 times base times height
note:bh=base times height

a=1/2bh
b=width

h=-4+2w
h=2w-4
subsitute
a=1/2w(2w-4)
a=1/2(2s^2-4w)
a=w^2-2w
a=63
63=w^2-2w
subtract 63 from both sdies
0=w^2-2w-63
factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -63 and add to get -2
the numbers are -9 and 7
so
0=(w-9)(w+7)
if xy=0 then x and/or y=0

so
w-9=0
w+7=0

solve each
w-9=0
add 9 to both sdies
w=9

w+7=0
subtract 7 from both sides
w=-7
width cannot be negative so this can be discarded

width=9

subsitute
l=2w-4
l=2(9)-4
l=18-4
l=14


legnth=14 in
width/base=9 in
