Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation: 8 (1/3) 16 (2/3) 24 (3/3)
You need to find the amount subject to withholding, subtracting from the weekly salary the amount for one withholding allowance for weekly salaries, which is 77.90$:
830 - 77.90 = 752.1 $.
Then, look in the Fed Tax tables (
http://www.opers.ok.gov/Websites/opers/images/pdfs/2016-Fed-Tax-Tables.pdf ) for a married person with a weekly payroll.
You previously found an amount of 752.1 which is greater than 521 but less than 1613$: therefore the income tax to withhold is 35.70$ + 15% of excess over $521.
Therefore, calculate the income tax due: 35.70 + (752.1 - 521) × 15 ÷ 100 = 70.37$
The total amount of income tax that will be withheld is 70.37$
1. First step: To get a term of x by itself, add 5 to both sides
Second step: This will become 3x<24
Third step: To separate 3x, divide everything by 3: 3x÷3 < 24÷3
Step four: x < 8
2. First subtract both sides by 12: - 2x + 12 - 12 < - 4 - 12
Second: This becomes - 2x < -16
Third: Divide by -2 to get x by itself - 2x ÷ - 2 > -16 ÷ - 2 Note: If you divide by a negative number, the inequality sign switches. This is a really important step that most students forget.
Fourth: x>8
Note: Try plugging in values when you are done if you are uncertain you have the right answer.
What ever number A is, it is going to be less than whatever number B is.
Consists of two terms (A+B)
