Sarah is paid biweekly. Her annual salary is $33,000.
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

$1269.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sarah is paid biweekly (every 2 weeks), and there are 52 weeks in a year...

52 ÷ 2=26

Sarah is being paid 26 weeks out of the year.

Divide 33,000 by 26 (I only list 4 places after the decimal):

33000 ÷ 26=1269.2307

Round 1269.2307 to the nearest cent (hundredth):

1269.23

A​ cold-water faucet can fill a sink in 1212 ​min, and a​ hot-water faucet can fill it in 1515 min. The drain can empty the sink
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

9.1 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent time taken to fill the tank.

We have been given that a cold water faucet can fill a sink in 12 ​min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be \frac{1}{12}.

The hot-water faucet can fill it in 15 min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be \frac{1}{15}.

The drain can empty the sink in 25 min, so the part of drain emptied in 1 minute would be \frac{1}{25}.

The part of 1 full tank filled in t minutes, when both faucets are on and the drain is​ open would be:

(\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{15}-\frac{1}{25})t=1

Make a common denominator:

(\frac{1*25}{12*25}+\frac{1*20}{15*20}-\frac{1*12}{25*12})t=1

(\frac{25}{300}+\frac{20}{300}-\frac{12}{300})t=1

(\frac{25+20-12}{300})t=1

\frac{33}{300}t=1

\frac{11}{100}t=1

\frac{100}{11}\times \frac{11}{100}t=\frac{100}{11}\times1

t=\frac{100}{11}

t=9.0909

t\approx 9.1

Therefore, it will take 9.1 minutes to fill the sink.
