We need the question and answer choices for us to answer
Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions. When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots. Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.
Semi monthly means 2 times per month
assume that pay is at beginning and middle of month (doesn't matter, but makes it easier for me)
so 12 months
2 times per month
12 times 2=24

55,000/24=2291.67
so the amount per paycheck, assuming equally distributed amounts throughout the paychecks, is $2291.67
