jesse earned a total of $75,000 this year. he lives in the
district of columbia where the local income tax rate is 8.5% for
all incomes over $40,000.

part a. how much will jesse pay in income tax?

part b. how much money will jesse have after paying his
income tax?

Part A)

Multiply the amount he earned by 8.5%

8.5% written as a decimal is 0.085.

75,000 x 0.085 = $6,375

Part B)

Subtract the amount of tax from his earnings:

75,000 - 6,375 = $68,625

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
