One square grid has an area of 400.
Another square grid has an area of 256.
The area of the third grid can be:
(squares in third grid) + 256 = 400
OR
256 + 400 = (squares in third grid)
We get this by applying the Pythagorean theorem.
So, the squares in the third grid can either be 144 or 656. And we only have 144 as an option, so that is your answer.
Your final answer is D. 144.
The answer to the question is a direct variation. k=2
Answer:
450
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
