Given Data:

trisha pay per year = $17,500

she has 30% withheld for deductions.

To find : the net amount of her biweekly paycheck.

Then,


\begin{gathered} 17500\text{ }/\text{ 26= }673.07 \\ 673.07\cdot0.3=\text{ 201.92} \\ 673.07-201.92=471.15 \end{gathered}

Thus, the net amounnt of her biweekly pay check is $471.15.
