The first one- the rest don’t add up
Answer: thier salaries are $5000 and $5500
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the average weekly salary of one employee be =x
And that of the other employee be = x+500
Such that if thier average of their salaries= $5250
So, their total salary= $5250 x 2=10,500
The equation to solve each employee salary becomes
x+x+500=10,500
2x+500=10,500
2x=10,500-500
2x=10,000
x=10,000 /2
x= first employee salary =$5000
second employee = x+500 =$5500

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>Total miles = 2.5 miles
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u><u>1- While walking:</u>
We are given that Joelle walked 20 minutes at a rate of 3 miles per hour.
This means that she walked

of an hour at a rate of 3 miles per hour
The formula that relates distance, time and velocity is:
Distance = velocity * time<u>Substitute with the givens to get the distance she covered while walking:</u>
Distance = 3 *

= 1 mile
<u>2- While running:</u>
We are given that Joelle ran 15 minutes at a rate of 6 miles per hour
This means that she ran

of an hour at a rate of 6 miles per hour
The formula that relates distance, time and velocity is:
Distance = velocity * time<u>Substitute with the givens to get the distance she covered while running:</u>
Distance = 6 *

= 1.5 miles
<u>3- getting the total mileage:</u>
Total distance she covered = distance while walking + distance while running
Total distance she covered = 1 + 1.5
Total distance she covered = 2.5 miles
Hope this helps :)
