Answer 1

Your methods returns tax, federal tax etc. Means you can assign it to a variable. Or just print it in your main method.

In your main method:
Create an object:
EmployeeType e = new EmployeeType(12, 2);
System.out.println(e.state_tax(2.5,3.0)),

Answer 8

// in class EmployeeType
double state_tax(double pay, double p) {
return pay * p * 0.01;
}
double federal_tax(double pay, double p) {
return pay * p * 0.01;
}

// in main()
System.out.println("Enter state tax percentage");
double state_tax_percentage = sc.nextDouble();
double state_tax = et.state_tax(payroll, state_tax_percentage);
System.out.println(" state tax " +state_tax);

System.out.println("Enter federal_tax percentage");
double federal_tax_percentage = sc.nextDouble();
double federal_tax = et.federal_tax(payroll, federal_tax_percentage);
System.out.println(" federal tax "+federal_tax);

ps. I didn't care if you calculate it right
