x=5
14x5= 70
70-21=49
this is how I got the answer
Everyone should do this derivation, because otherwise the "quadratic formula" is some sort of "magic" LOL...
ax^2+bx+c=0
x^2+bx/a+c/a=0
x^2+bx/a=-c/a
x^2+bx/a+b^2x/(4a^2)=b^2/(4a^2)-c/a
(x+b/(2a))^2=(b^2-4ac)/(4a^2)
x+b/(2a)=±√(b^2-4ac)/(2a)
x=-b/(2a)±√(b^2-4ac)/(2a)
x=(-b±√b^2-4ac)/(2a)
600,000 because 53 is bigger than 50 so you would round up
Answer:
6.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
The current tax rate for social security is 6.2% for the employer and 6.2% for the employee, or 12.4% total. The current rate for Medicare is 1.45% for the employer and 1.45% for the employee, or 2.9% total.
