Directions: Read the scenario below and calculate what Marcus' pay is after deductions are

subtracted from his gross pay.

Marcus' Story

Marcus works at a mall kiosk earning $10 an hour. During his last pay period, he worked a total

of 40 hours. Below is the list of his deductions. Help Marcus calculate his net pay.

Gross pay: $400.00

Deductions:

Social Security: $9.75

Medicare: $3.10

Withholdings:

Federal income Tax. $30.00

State Income Tax: $10.50

What is Marcus' net pay?

$346.65

Step-by-step explanation:

If Marcus worked a total of 40 hours, and he earns 10$ an hour, his payment before deductions is 400$, as put in the "gross pay".

We need to sum all the deductions:

9.75 + 3.10 + 30 + 10.5 = 53.35

Now, to know Marcus net pay, we just need to subtract his gross pay from this total deduction:

400 - 53.35 = 346.65

So, his net payment is $346.65

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.
