No, you don't. You've already defined it by saying
(define (gross hours)
(* hours pay-rate))

Yep.

While you got it working, you are over complicating the process.
First you defined that variables, that's fine
(define tax-rate .15)
(define pay-rate 12)
The function net-pay only needs one input, the amount of hours you are working.
With the defined pay-rate and tax-rate, how would you determi

Just to be more careful: when you're showing the calculation, make
sure to include the use of the function:

You need to start over and slow down because you are getting the basic
Scheme syntax wrong.
The gross pay function is already given:
(define (wage h)
(* 12 h))
You could modify it according to the previous suggestions to make it more

; By convention constants are named in upper case
