Question

I have a pyhon question and I'm not understanding how to do it

Write the Python code needed to perform the following:
- Calculate state withholding tax (stateTax) at 6.5 percent
- Calculate federal withholding tax (federalTax) at 28.0 percent.
- Calculate dependent deductions (dependentDeduction) at 2.5 percent of the employee’s salary for each dependent.
- Calculate total withholding (totalWithholding) as stateTax + federalTax + dependentDeduction.

Calculate take-home pay (takeHomePay) as salary - totalWithholding

In this program, the variables named salary and numDependents are initialized with the values 1250.0 and 2. To make this program more flexible, modify it to accept interactive input for salary and numDependents

This is my code down below but i keep getting a Syntax error for Salary and not sure how to fix it it should come out like what i posted at the very bottom but I'm not getting that.

salary = 1250.00

numDependents = 2

stateTax = * 6.5

federalTax = * 28.0

dependantDeduction = * 2.5

Salary =

# Calculate stateTax here.

print("State Tax: $" + str(stateTax))

# Calculate federalTax here.

print("Federal Tax: $" + str(federalTax))

# Calculate dependantDeduction here.

print("Dependents: $" + str(dependentDeduction))

# Calculate totalWithholding here.

print("totalWithholding: $" + str(stateTax + federalTax + dependantDeduction))

# Calculate takeHomePay here.

print(" take home: $" + str(salary - totalWithholding)

print("Salary: $" + str(salary))

print("Take Home Pay: $" + str(takeHomePay))
