Given =

Marcus earned $54,000 last year. social s ecurity tax was 6.2% and medicare tax was 1.45%

Find out  he pay in Social Security and Medicare taxes last year.

To proof

Marcus earned last year = $ 54000

Social Security tax = 6.2%

Medicare tax = 1.45%

First find out the  social security tax

6.2 % written in the simpler form = \frac{6.2}{100}

                                                       = 0.062

Social Security tax last year = .062×54000

                                              = $ 3348

find out Medicare taxes

1.45% Medicare tax written in the simpler form = \frac{1.45}{100}

                                                                             = 0.0145

Medicare taxes last year = 0.0145 × 54000

                                        = $743

Total tax  last year  = $743 + $3348

                                = $ 4131

Hence proved

Answer

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax amount = $743

Step by step explanation

The amount earned by Marcus = $54000

Social security tax = 6.2% = 6.2/100 = 0.062

Social security tax amount = 54000*0.062

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax = 1.45% = 1.45/100 = 0.0145

Medicare tax amount = 54000*0.0145

Medicare tax amount = $743

Hope this will help you.

An experiment was conducted to test the effect of a new cholesterol medicine. Fifteen people were treated with medicine X and 15
gtnhenbr [62]

Considering the hypothesis tested and the p-value of the test, the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no difference between the cholesterol levels, that is:

H₀:Hₓ-H

At the alternative hypothesis it is tested if there is a difference, hence:

H₀:Hₓ-H≠0

The p-value is of 0.003 < 0.01, hence we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there has was a difference, hence the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.

Under his cell phone plan Jason pays a flat cost of $60.50 per month and four dollars per gigabyte he wants to keep his bill at
Over [174]

Answer:

2 gigabytes of data

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount Jason keeps per month = $68.90

Cost of flat per month = $60.50

Balance for data = 68.90-60.50

Balance for data = $8.40

If 1Gigabyte = $4

x = $8.40

Cross multiply

4x = 8.40

x = 8.40/2

x = 2.20

Hence Jason can only use 2 gigabytes of data while staying within his budget
