Bailee's annual income was deducted for FICA is approximately C. $2,164.95.

FICA, or the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, is a payroll tax that is used to fund Social Security and Medicare. The current FICA tax rate for Social Security is 6.2% and the current rate for Medicare is 1.45%.

To find out how much of Bailee's annual income was deducted for FICA, we can multiply her gross income during each pay period by the FICA tax rate and the number of pay periods in a year.

Since Bailee gets paid monthly, there are 12 pay periods in a year.

FICA = (Gross income * (6.2% + 1.45%)) *12

FICA = (2358.33 * (6.2/100 + 1.45/100)) * 12

FICA = (2358.33 * 0.0765) * 12

FICA = 179.95 * 12

FICA = $2159.4

So, $2159.4 of Bailee's annual income was deducted for FICA.

What is the slop?

The slope, also known as the gradient, is a measure of the steepness of a line. It tells us how much the y-coordinate of a point on the line changes as the x-coordinate changes. The slope is often represented by the letter "m" in the equation of a line. The slope is defined as the ratio of the rise (the change in y-coordinate) to the run (the change in x-coordinate) between two points on a line.

An equation of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

where:

m = slope of the line

x = variable of the line

y = variable of the line

b = y-intercept

Given the y-intercept is -6 and the slope is -6/7, we can substitute these values into the equation above:

y = -6/7x + -6

This equation of the line is in slope-intercept form, and it can be used to find the y-coordinate of any point on the line given the x-coordinate, or to find the x-coordinate of any point on the line given the y-coordinate.

You can also write it in point-slope form.

The point slope form is

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

So it can be written as

y = -6/7x - 6/7 * x1 + y1

Where the x1 and y1 are arbitrary value which lies on the line.

Answer:

To determine which of the given lines is parallel to the line y = 2/3x + 5, we need to compare their slopes. The slope of a line is the coefficient of the x variable, in this case 2/3.

The lines that are parallel have the same slope.

A.y=2/3x-4 is parallel to the line y = 2/3x +5 because the slope of 2/3 is the same.

B.y=2/3x-7 is parallel to the line y = 2/3x +5 because the slope of 2/3 is the same.

C.y=-2/3x+5 is not parallel to the line y = 2/3x +5 because the slope of -2/3 is different from the slope 2/3.

D.y=-2/3x+5 is not parallel to the line y = 2/3x +5 because the slope of -2/3 is different from the slope 2/3.

So the answer is A and B are parallel to the line y = 2/3x +5

Relative frequency distributions are generally more useful than frequency distributions when comparing                  data sets

Answer: a) To find the mean and standard deviation of the difference of their times, we need to use the properties of normal distributions. When two independent normal random variables are subtracted, the mean and standard deviation of the difference can be found using the following formulas:

Mean of the difference = Mean of x - Mean of y

Standard deviation of the difference = √(Standard deviation of x^2 + Standard deviation of y^2)

Plugging in the given values:

Mean of the difference = Mean of Molesky - Mean of Liberty = 100 - 110 = -10

Standard deviation of the difference = √(8^2 + 10^2) = √(64 + 100) = √(164) = 12.8

So the mean of the difference of their times is -10 minutes and the standard deviation is 12.8 minutes.

b) To find the probability that Mr. Molesky will finish his game before Mr. Liberty on any given day, we need to find the probability that the difference of their times is less than 0. Since the difference of their times is normally distributed with a mean of -10 and a standard deviation of 12.8, we can use the standard normal distribution table to find this probability.

To calculate the probability, we will standardize the distribution of the difference by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.

z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

z = (-10) / 12.8 = -0.78125

Using a standard normal table we can find that P(z<-0.78125) = 0.22 or 22%

So the probability that Mr. Molesky will finish his game before Mr. Liberty on any given day is 22%.

The value of x from the triangle is x = 56°

A triangle is a plane figure or polygon with three sides and three angles.

A Triangle has three vertices and the sum of the interior angles add up to 180°

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

The area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

For a right angle triangle

From the Pythagoras Theorem , The hypotenuse² = base² + height²

if a² + b² = c² , it is a right triangle

if a² + b² < c² , it is an obtuse triangle

if a² + b² > c² , it is an acute triangle

Given data ,

Let the first triangle be represented as ABC

Let the second triangle be represented as ABD

Now , the measure of side ABD = x°

In the triangle ABC ,

∠ACB = 180° - 104° ( angles on a straight line = 180° )

So , the measure of ∠ACB = 76°

And , the measure of side ∠ACB = measure of side ∠ABC ( given )

So , the measure of side ∠ABC = 76°

And , for a triangle ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The measure of ∠BAC = 180° - ( 76° + 76° )

The measure of ∠BAC = 28°

Now , the measure of ∠BAC + measure of ∠BAD = 90° ( given perpendicular line )

So , the measure of side ∠BAD = 90° - 28°

The measure of side ∠BAD = 62°

And , measure of side ∠BAD = measure of side ∠ABD ( given that they are similar )

So , the measure of side ∠ABD = 62°

And , for a triangle ∠A + ∠B + ∠D = 180°

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The measure of side ABD = x° = 180° - ( 62° + 62° )

The measure of side ABD = x° = 180° - 124°

The measure of side ABD = x° = 56°

Hence , the measure of x is 56°

Answer:

x = 2 , y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 6y = - 2 → (1)

- 6x - 8y = - 4 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 3 and adding to (2) will eliminate x

6x + 18y = - 6 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

(- 6x + 6x) + (- 8y + 18y) = - 4 - 6

0 + 10y = - 10

10y = - 10 ( divide both sides by 10 )

y = - 1

substitute y = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

substituting into (1)

2x + 6(- 1) = - 2

2x - 6 = - 2 ( add 6 to both sides )

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

Answer: A) 10√2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the value of x by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

a = 10

b = 10

c = x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(10)^2 + (10)^2 = c^2

100 + 100 = c^2

200 = c^2

Square root both sides.

c = √200

Simplify the square root. 100 x 2 is 200, and 100 is a perfect square.

√200 = √100√2

√100 can be simplified to 10. √2 can not be simplified.

The answer would be option A ) 10√2

The value of x in the given triangle is 10√2 units.

Pythagoras theorem states that in a right triangle the three sides are related by the formula, a²+b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.

Given that, a triangle, we need to find the hypotenuse x,

Using the Pythagoras theorem,

10²+10² = x²

x² = 100 + 100

x² = 200

x = 10√2

Using the direct and inverse variations, the time taken by 10 workers to paint a fence of 1000 ft is 15 hours.

The ratio between two proportional quantities' constant values is known as the constant of proportionality. When either their ratio or their product gives a constant, two changing values are said to be in a proportionate relationship. The Direct Variation and Inverse Variation types of proportions between the two provided values determine the proportionality constant's value.

Given that the time t needed to paint a fence varies directly as the length L and inversely as the number of workers w.

This is represented as follows:

t = k(l/p)

Where, k is the proportionality constant.

Given that, it takes 10 hours to paint 400 feet of fence with six workers.

Substitute the value of t = 10, l = 400 and w = 6 in the equation we have:

10 = k (400 / 6)

10 = k (66.66)

k = 10 / 66.66

k = 0.15

Now, for or 10 workers to paint 1000 ft fence, take l = 1000, w = 10, and k - 0.15:

t = (0.15) (1000 / 10)

t = (0.15) (100)

t = 15
