Janis earns $7.00 per hour at Pizza King. After 6 months, her hourly pay of pay increased to $7.70 per hour. What is the percent
suter [353]

Answer: 10%

Explanation:

Given: Previous Hourly pay=  $7.00

Current Hourly pay = $7.70

Increase in hourly pay = Current Hourly pay  - Previous Hourly pay

= $7.70- $7.00

= $0.70

Now, the percent increase in her hourly rate of pay will be :

\dfrac{\text{Increase in hourly pay}}{\text{Previous Hourly pay}}\times100\%\\\\=\dfrac{0.70}{7}\times100\%\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\times100\%\\\\=10\%

Hence, the  percent increase in her hourly rate of pay = 10%

5- Why do we only see one side of the moon?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

One side of the moon always faces the earth, which is called synchronous rotation. In other words, the length of time the moon rotates or revolves around its axis is the same as the length of time it takes to orbit the earth... Therefore, our moon always has a side facing the earth, which we call the near side of the moon.
