employee wages is between 32% and 35%?
O$1,020.00sts $1,115.63
O$2,040.00 ≤ts $2,231.25
O$4,080.00sts $4,4,62.50
O$4,420.00 $4,834.38

Answer 1

$4,420.00 ≤ t ≤ $4,834.38

Explanation:

Since yearly employee wages range from 32 to 35%, lets calculate what those percentages are in dollars:

32%: ($165,750)*(0.32) = $53,040/year

35%: ($165,750)*(0.35) = $58,012.5/year

To find the average monthly budget, divide the yearly budget by 12 months

32%: $53,040/year*(1 year/12 months) = $4,420/month

35%: ($58,012.5/year*(1 year/12 months) = $4,834.4/month

t ranges from $4,420/month to $4,834.4/month

$4,420.00 ≤ t ≤$4,834.38
