To answer this item, we let x be Jeff's speed when going back home. With this representation, the speed from home to his parents is x + 9. The total time it took him for the trip is 8 hours. The time of each trip can be calculated by dividing the distance by time. Such concept is presented below.
 
                             8 hours = 160/x + 160/(x + 9)

The value of x from the equation is 36. Thus, his speeds were 36 miles/h and 45 miles/h.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Correct answer is:

Debit Salaries Expense $840

Credit Salaries Payable $840

Explanation:

2 employees each paid at $ 210 per day so daily salary expense is $210*2 = $420.

The accounting period ends on Tuesday and both employees work for Monday and Tuesday so the 2 days salaries expense is $420*2= $840.

As the salaries are paid on every Friday so there is a liability on a company for the 2 days salary payable to be recorded on accounting period close date i.e Tuesday.
