Catherine's employer matches 25% of her 401(k) contributions — up to $2000. catherine's salary is $50,000, and last year she contributed $10,000 to her 401(k) plan. what was her employer's contribution to the 401(k)?

We have been given that Catherine's employer matches 25% of her 401(k) contributions or a maximum of $2000. Further we are given that Catherine's salary is $50,000 and she contributed $10,000 to her 401(k) plan.

Let the contribution form her employer be $x. We are given that her employer matches 25% of Catherine's contribution under 401(k) plan. Therefore, contribution made by employer would be either 25% of 10,000 or 2000, whichever is lesser.

Let us find 25% of 10,000.

Since 25% of 10,000 is more than 2000, therefore, Catherine's employer would make a contribution of $2000.

according to the triangle sum theorem, all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. if we know one angle is already 90, we do 180-90=90. the other 2 angles must add up to 90, exactly.

step-by-step explanation:

25% is the answer
