2. Nolan works part-time at a movie theater making his state's minimum wage of 10.10 per hour.
He receives a paycheck every 2 weeks.
a. If he works 20 hours over the course of the first two weeks in February, how much should he
expect to have taken out of his paycheck for payroll taxes?
b. The second half of February is much busier with local schools closed for the entire week of
Presidents Day, and Nolan's boss schedules him for 27 hours instead. Other than payroll taxes,
Nolan doesn't have any other money withheld from his paycheck. How much can he expect
his take-home pay to be? Note: Take -home pay is gross earnings minus any deductions.
