Answer 1

Dalton Alexander's gross weekly pay is $576. His earnings to date for the year total $13,824. What amount is deducted from his pay each week for Medicare, which is taxed at 1.45%?* O $6.00 O $8.35 O $15.60 O $19.95​

we know that

Dalton Alexander's gross weekly pay is $576

Medicare is taxed at 1.45%

so

1.45%=1.45/100=0.0145

Multiply 0.0145 by $576

576(0.0145)=$8.35

therefore

answer is the option $8.35
