Answer :

To determine the amount of income tax withheld each week given a gross taxable income of [tex]$\$[/tex]1,166[tex]$ and no claimed exemptions, let's analyze the provided data table: 1. Locate the range in the table where the gross income of $[/tex]\[tex]$1,166$[/tex] falls. The pertinent range is "At least \[tex]$1,160 but less than \$[/tex]1,170."
2. Identify the column corresponding to zero withholdings, as no exemptions have been claimed.

For the range \[tex]$1,160 - \$[/tex]1,170 and zero withholdings, the table shows:
[tex]\[ \text{Income Tax Withheld} = \$340 \][/tex]

Therefore, the amount of income tax withheld each week for a gross taxable income of \[tex]$1,166 and no exemptions is: \[ \boxed{\$[/tex]340}
\]
