Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
From annual salary of 42,600, we have to subtract the following percentages:
<u>Social Security:</u>
0.062 * 42,600 = 2641.2
<u>Medicare:</u>
0.014 * 42,600 = 596.4
<u>State Income Tax:</u>
0.03 * 42,600 = 1278
<u>Federal Income Tax:</u>
0.13 * 42,600 = 5538
<u>Total Deductions</u> (from percentages) = 2641.2 + 596.4 + 1278 + 5538 = 10053.6
Now, remaining salary:
42,600 - 10053.6 = 32546.4 (annual)
Divided by 12 to get monthly:
32546.4 / 12 = 2712.2 (monthly)
Now, monthly deductions are:
260 + 280 = 540
<u>Net Salary:</u> 2712.2 - 540 =2172.2
One side of the rectangle is x=2, the other side is 2x-5
Add up all the four sides: (x+2) +(x+2)+(2x-5)+(2x-5)=54
6x-6=54
x=10
#3: suppose the first integer is x, then the second one is x+2
x(x+2)=255
x^2 +2x -255 =0
factor the quadratic equation: (x+17)(x-15)=0
x=-17, which is impossible, or x=15
so the two positive integers are 15 and 17
Then 1 white, then 3 blue then 1 white
It goes in 56 times. 448/8=56
