Answer:

The fica tax deducted from Natasha gross pay be $266.83 .

Option (D) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Natasha's gross pay is $3488.

The social security tax is 6.2% of gross pay .

6.2% is written in the decimal form .

= \frac{6.2}{100}

= 0.062

Social Security tax = 0.062 × Gross pay

                               = 0.062 × 3488

                               = $ 216.256

As given

The medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay .

1.45% is written in the decimal form .

= \frac{1.45}{100}

= 0.0145

Medicure tax = 0.0145 × Gross pay

                      = 0.0145 × 3488

                      = $ 50.576 (Approx)

Thus

Gross pay deducted for fica tax = Social Security tax + Medicure tax

                                                       = $216.256 + $50.576

                                                       = $ 266.832

                                                       = $ 266.83 (Approx)

Therefore the fica tax deducted from Natasha gross pay be $266.83 .

Option (D) is correct .

Solve for x<br> 9 - x &lt; 17<br><br> btw the &lt; has the line underneath it!
Radda [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9 - x ≤17

At some point you are going to have to turn the equation around. This would not normally be your first step, but this time it is better to start with it.

We won't do it directly. The best way to do it is to add x to both sides before you do anything else. This is not the usual way to solve these equations, but it's a good time to learn.

Inequality Rule: you must always solve for x. If it is -x then you are going to have to make an adjustment to get the x to be positive.

9 - x ≤ 17                        Add x to both sides

9 - x+x ≤ 17 + x              Combine

9 ≤ 17 + x                      Subtract 17 from both sides.

9 - 17 ≤ 17 - 17 + x

8 ≤ x

Notice that you have effectively changed the ≤ sign around, not because you have, but because the x reads differently now. It started out 9 - x ≤ 17 and when you finish solving it you get 8 is less than or equal to x. Entirely different.

The length of a social media interaction is normally distributed with a mean of 3 minutes and a standard deviation of .4 minutes
Kazeer [188]

The  probability that an interaction lasts longer than 4 minutes is 0.0062.

<h3>What is probability theory?</h3>

probability theory in mathematics  focus on the  analysis of random phenomena and this theory let us know that the outcome of a random event cannot be determined before it occurs.

z = (4 - 3)/.4

z = 1/.4

z = 2.5

0.0062

Hence The  probability that an interaction lasts longer than 4 minutes is 0.0062.
