Answer: The answer is ¨B¨
Step-by-step explanation:
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
divide 55000 by number of months
55,000/24=2291.67
so the amount per paycheck, assuming equally distributed amounts throughout the paychecks, is $2291.67
Answer: -4
Reasoning: so first you need to subtract the 7 from the 9 to get -2. Then you square it to get 4 because a negative 2 times -2 is 4. Then you multiply the 4 by the 2 to get 8. You can simplify the -10/5 to -1/2 and multiply that by the 8 to get -8/2 which simplified out to -4.
I hope that helps.
