Answer:

$153

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount deducted for social security and medicare is shown below:

For social security, it is

= $2,000 × 6.2%

= $124

And, for the medicare, it is

= $2,000 × 1.45%

= $29

= $153

Since the deducted amount could be computed by considering the check amount i.e $2,000 and the same is to be considered
