Answer:

14379.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If I remember correctly, the Medicare tax is taken on Gross Income. The question has already limited the base amount for Social Security.

<em><u>Social Security:</u></em> 118,500 * 6.2/100 =   7347

Medicare Tax:    485,000*1.45/100 =  <u>7032.50</u>    Add

Add                                                       14379.50

Sonny paid 14370 in taxes for these 2 items.

Answer:

$14,379.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • Sonny Siebert Income: $485,000
  • Social Security tax rate: 6.2%  up to $118,500
  • Medicare tax of 1.45%

As we know that, the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) is made up of two items, Social Security and Medicare taxes.

So

Social Security tax: $118,500*6.2% = $7347

Medicare tax: $485,000*1.45% = $732.5

=> the amount of  FICA taxes as a rookie pitcher she needs to pay is:

= $7347 + $732.5

= $14,379.50

What are the solutions to the equation x - 7/x = 6
bearhunter [10]

The answer is C that is X=7 and X=-1

multiple x through the given equation to get rid of a fraction. It will be

{x}^{2}  - 7 = 6x

After that bring 6X to the LHS of the equation

so that it will look like the general equation that is

{x}^{2}  - 6x - 7 = 0

Use the quadratic formula (or any other approach to find the values of x

You will arrive at

x = 7. - 1

Find the value of x in the parallelogram.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two angles are on the same side of the parallelogram, they're supplementary.

x + (2x - 45) = 180

3x - 45 = 180

3x = 225

x = 75

What does it mean if the hundred digit of my number is less than tens digit. The ones digit is greater than the tens digit. What
leonid [27]
Every number consists of digits which have their own value. If the number consists of 3 digits, then the rightmost digit is for ones, middle digit is for tens and leftmost digit is for hundreds (it goes on and on with more-than-3-digit-numbers). About your task:

Hundred digit is smaller than tens digit and tens digit is smaller than ones digit. It means that the leftmost digit is the lowest, the rightmost digit is the greatest and the middle digit is a value between both of them.

For example:

123, 258, 346, 789, 278, 568 etc. etc.
