Respuesta :

Explanation:

We have to substract the amounts her empoyer deducted from her gross pay:

First we have to find the percentages:

Social security: 6.2%:

[tex]820\times\frac{6.2}{100}=820\times0.062=50.84[/tex]

Medicare 1.45%:

[tex]820\times\frac{1.45}{100}=820\times0.0145=11.89[/tex]

In total:

[tex]820-109-50.84-11.89-74-45=529.27[/tex]

Answer:

Rose's net pay was $529.27
