Answer: The value deducted from Colin's paycheck for Medicare portion of FICA tax will be $725.

Step-by-step explanation:

The FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) tax is a mandatory deduction from employee paychecks on gross yearly income according to U.S law. It consists of two portions

1- Social Security tax (at the rate of 6.2% as of 2019)

2-Medicare tax (at the rate of 1.45% as of 2019)

Colin has gross earnings of $50,000 per annum

Medicare tax amount at the rate of 1.45% = 1.45 % of 50,000

                                                                     = 1.45 x 50,000 /100

                                                                     = $725

The value deducted from Colin's paycheck for Medicare portion of FICA tax will be 725 dollars and 0 cents.

A person wants to create a vegetable garden and keeps the rabbits out by enclosing it with 100 feet of fencing. The area of the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The garden can not have area of 700ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given equation for area as

A(w)=w\times (50-w)

where

w is the width (in feet) of the garden

now, we are given area =700 ft^2

so, we can set area =700

and then we can solve for w

w\times (50-w)=700

50w-w^2=700

-w^2+50w-700=0

now, we can use quadratic formula

ax^2+bx+c=0

w=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

we can compare and find a,b, and c

a=-1 , b=50 , c=-700

now, we can plug values

w=\frac{-50\pm \sqrt{50^2-4\left(-1\right)\left(-700\right)}}{2\left(-1\right)}

w=25-5\sqrt{3}i,\:w=25+5\sqrt{3}i

We can see that values of w is not real

so, w does not exists when area =700

so, The garden can not have area of 700ft^2

Calculator
sweet [91]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract starting value minus the final value (decrease)

\$5.75 - \$4.60\\\\= 5.75 - 4.60 \\\\= 1.15

Step 2: Divide the decrease by the original number

1.15 \div 5.75\\\\= \frac{1.15}{5.75}\\\\= 0.2

Step 3: Multiply the result by 100 to get a percent decrease

0.2 \times 100\\\\= 20

Therefore, the percent decrease of the price of paper per package is 20%

<em>Note: If the percentage is negative, it means there was an increase and not a decrease.</em>
