Answer:

B. 37.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Co-ordinate of point Q = 4

Co-ordinate of point R = 8

Co-ordinate of point S = 9

Co-ordinate of point T = 12

It is required to find the probability of a point chosen at random on QT which  lies on ST.

So, we have,

Distance of line QT = 12 - 4 = 8

Distance of line ST = 12 - 9 = 3

Then, the required probability = \frac{3}{8} = 0.375 or 37.5%

Hence, the probability of a point chosen at random on QT which  lies on ST is 37.5%

The employer contribution does not get deducted from her paycheck.  To find the amount deducted from her check we take 4% of 1305.60 = 0.04(1305.60) = $52.22.
