If you are self-employed, you don't have to pay FICA on all your salary, just on 92.35% of it. If your salary is $128,255 what i

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The amount that I am required to pay monthly as FICA if my salary remains constant is $18,121.85¢

Step-by-step explanation:

Federal insurance contributions act is a law that mandates all employers of labour to withhold medicare and certain taxes from the wages that are paid to employees or workers. These taxes are remitted to the government later which is then used for the provision of basic amenities and quality health care.

Since, I am only required by law to pay FICA on only 92.35% of my monthly salary, we need to calculate the the actual amount that makes up 92.35 percent of my monthly salary.

If $128,255 is my current monthly salary, then 92.35% of it will be:

92.35/100 × 128,255

= 0.9235 × 128,255

= $118,443.49¢

This is the part of his monthly salary that he is required by law to pay FICA on.

Then, if FICA is 15.3% of a worker's taxable income, then I am required to pay 15.3% of the taxable $118,443.49¢ since I am self employed and mustn't pay it on the entire $128,255 that I earn monthly.

My monthly FICA contribution is then:

15.3/100 × 118,443.49

= 0.153 × 118,443.49

= $18,121.85¢.

Therefore, if my salary remains constant, the amount that I am required by law to pay monthly as FICA is $18,121.85

The temperature inside a certain industrial machine at time t seconds after startup, for 0 < t < 10, is given by h(t) = 42

frutty [35]

Answer:

$t= \frac{125}{38} s$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the temperature inside the machine from startup until 10 seconds later, the formula is:

$h(t)= 42 \cdot t +1 - 4\cdot t +2 (degrees \, C)$

We want to know at what time t the temperature inside the machine will be equal to 128 °C.

So we set:

$h(t)=128$

$42\cdot t+1-4\cdot t+2=128$

Now, we rearrange the equation to keep terms with t on the left hand side and terms without t on the right hand side

$42\cdot t-4\cdot t=128-1-2$

and we simplify:

$(42-4)\cdot t= 128-2-1= 125$

$38 \cdot t = 125$

now it's easy to solve for t:

$t=\frac{125}{38}$

And thus we arrive to the solution.

A grocery store recieves a 180-pound crate containing six 10-pound bags of potatos and an unknown number of 5-pound bags of pota

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$60+5x = 180$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bags of potatoes be x.

We have been given that a grocery store receives a 180-pound crate containing six 10-pound bags of potatoes and an unknown number of 5-pound bags of potatoes.

The weight of 6 potato bags of 10 pound each will be $6\times 10=60$ pounds.

We can write an equation for the number of bags of potatoes by equating the weight of six 10-pound bags of potatoes and x 5-pound bags of potatoes with 180 pounds.

$6*10+5x = 180$

$60+5x = 180$

Therefore, the equation that represents the number of bags of potatoes in the crate is $60+5x = 180$ .

Solve for x. 4- (2x + 4)=5 A. x = -10 B. x = 6 C. x = 3/2 D. x = -5/2

horsena [70]

Answer:

x = (-5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - (2x + 4) = 5

-4 from both sides

- (2x + 4) = 1

divide both sides by -1

2x + 4 = -1

-4 from both sides

2x = -5

divide both sides by 2

x = (-5/2)
