Juanita is the self-employed owner of juanita's linens. her estimated annual earnings are $73,040 and she expects to pay 27% of this amount in income tax. what will be her quarterly estimated tax payment for the third quarter? (for self-employed persons, social security tax is 12.4% of wages up to $106,800, and medicare tax is 2.9% of all wages.)

  $7724

Step-by-step explanation:

Her estimated quarterly income is $73,040/4 = $18,260.

Her estimated tax rate is ...

  27% + 12.4% + 2.9% = 42.3%

This tax rate applied to her estimated earnings gives an estimated quarterly tax of ...

  $18,260 × 0.423 = $7723.98

  ≈ $7724 . . . . . taxes are rounded to the nearest dollar

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
