Assuming John does not get premium pay for hours over 40, his pay will be ...

... 43 hours × $9.00 = $387

... - 6.2% × $387 = $23.99

... - 1.45% × $387 = $5.61

... - $15.00

... - 5% × $387 = $19.35

... - 10% × ($387 -19.35) = $36.77

... = $286.28 . . . . net pay after all the deductions

Answer:

$286.28

Explanation:

Working 43 hours at a rate of $9 per hour gives John

43(9) = $387 gross pay.

Social Security is 6.2% of gross pay; 6.2% = 6.2/100 = 0.062; this gives us a deduction of

387(0.062) = 23.994 ≈ $23.99

Medicare is 1.45% of gross pay; 1.45% = 1.45/100 = 0.0145; this gives us a deduction of

387(0.0145) = 5.6115 ≈ $5.61

Health insurance is a deduction of $15.

401(k) contributions are 5% of gross pay; 5% = 5/100 = 0.05; this gives us a deduction of

387(0.05) = $19.35

Federal tax is deducted <em>after</em> the 401(k) contribution.  This means the tax is going to be 10% of

387-19.35 = $367.65

10% = 10/100 = 0.1; this gives us a deduction of

367.65(0.1) = 36.765 ≈ $36.77

This gives John a net pay of:

387-23.99-5.61-15-19.35-36.77 = $286.28

given the points(-4,8) and (6,-12) determine the mid point of line segment connecting the points determine the distance sepratin
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

midpoint = ( \frac{ - 4 + 6}{2} , \:  \frac{ - 12 + 8}{2} ) \\  = (1, \:  - 2) \\  \\ distance =  \sqrt{ {( - 4 - 6)}^{2} +  {(8  + 12)}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{500}  \\  = 22.4 \: units

Rebecca ran 21 miles in 5 hours. If she ran at a constant speed, how many miles did she run in 2 hours? 8.4 miles 42 miles 4.2 m
Sholpan [36]

Answer: 8.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt

Solve for her rate

21 = 5r

r = 21/5

r = 4.2

Solve for if the time is 2 hours and rate (solved previously) is 4.2

d = 4.2*2

d = 8.4

Maritza remembers her pin because it is the product of consecutive prime numbers that is between 1000 and 1500. What is her pin
faltersainse [42]
Well, i am not sure if i am right, but i tried.

The prime numbers have to be consecutive, (meaning in order from least to greatest), so you find 2 prime numbers on a list, and the only two are 31 and 37 so multiply those and you should get 1147

Im having a hard time on this question and I hope you can help.
Masja [62]

The answer would be x ≠ 0

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First start with the left side, doing distributive property

So... -2(x) = -2x and -2(5) = -10 Therefore on the left side you now have -2x -10

Next do the same on the right side

-2(x) = - 2x and -2(-2) = 4 so you have -2x + 4 + 5 and you add 4 and 5, leaving you with -2x + 9

Now that you have simplified both sides the problem now looks like this:

-2x - 10 = -2x + 9

Because you have equal terms on both sides (-2) those cancel out so you have -10 = 9

Just from looking at this we know that the statement is false because -1o does not equal 9

*The symbol, "≠" means not equal to"
