2. Calculate the social security that should be withheld on an income of $10,000 of an employee?

The amount of social security that would be withheld from the person with the income of 10000 $ would be $620.

Explanation:

The percentage of income pulled for the social security fund of the government is 6.2%from the employee and the same amount taken from the employer

Social security is the amount taken up specifically for surveillance, policing and civic rules and regulations and their upkeep for the people. As such the rates are taken from both the firm and the employed.

So, a 6.2%rate out of $10000 would come out to be

6.2 * 10000/100

= $620

Which is the amount that is payable to the government for tax.

x=3

step-by-step explanation:

this is really simple i saw that there was only one term (5x) and thought if that was 15 what would i have to multiply everything else to get it there? well if 5x became 15 then x would have to be 3 so plug the 3 in the x for the other equations and you get 15 for the other ones. so there you go. : )
