b ( line 2
c ( line 3
d ( line 4

Answer 1

Alright, to start the problem, we need to know what Gina makes! If Gina worked 32 hours for $24.50 per hour, all we need to do is multiply 24.50 by 32 to get 748, which means that this week, Gina made $748!

Next, we need to look at the chart to see where he falls on income tax. Because Gina made more than $218, she makes too much for line 1. Because Gina made more than $758, she makes too much for line 2.
Because Gina made less than $1762, and more than 753, it looks like Gina will fall into line 3, so your answer should be C!
