Answer:

$120

Step-by-step explanation:

Job1:

       To find the tax, multiply the payment per week ($70) by 0.1.

         Tax = payment * tax rate

                = 70 * 10%

                [tex]\sf = 70 * \dfrac{10}{100}\\\\ = \$7[/tex]

Now, to find his earning after deduction of tax, subtract 7 from 70.

Amount after deduction of tax = 70 - 7

                                                  = $ 63

Job2:

       Tax = 60 * 5%

              = 60 * 0.05

               = $3

  Amount after deduction = 60 - 3

                                           = $ 57

Total amount Byron takes home = 63 + 57

                                                      = $120
