on the weekends. Your first week you worked 6 hours on Monday, 7 hours on Friday, and 8 hours on
Saturday. The employer withholds 15% for taxes. What is your gross and net income?

Answer:

192.1

Step-by-step explanation:

From monday and friday you earned 130$ because 6(10)+7(10)=130

Saturday you earned 96$ (12x8)

so adding those values you have 226$

you have to subtract 15% for tax.

So the equation would be


226 * .15 = 33.9 \\ 226 - 33.9 = 192.1
