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

The first interception for this function would be at (1,0) the next would be (4,0)
Answer:
Given below
Step-by-step explanation:
The algebraic identity is (a-b)^2
= a^2 + b^2 - 2ab
So it'll be,
(x-4)^2
= x^2 + (4)^2 - (2)(x)(4)
= x^2 -8x + 16
or x^2 +16 -8x
You can find the number of x intercepts by setting f(x) equal to zero giving you 0=x^4-5x^2. You can factor out an x^2 and divide on both sides (when you divide 0 by anything it is still zero so the x^2 disappears), and you are left with 0=x^2-5, which you can solve easily giving you x=+/- sqrt(5). However, the original equation also has an x intercept at (0,0) which you can see by plugging 0 in for x. So the grand total of x intercepts is 3!
