Answer: The correct statement is that the Last Quarter Moon (rises near midnight and sets near midday).

Explanation:

Phases of the moon also called the LUNAR PHASE can be defined as the different shades of illumination on the moon as seen from the earth. The moon is the natural satellite of the earth that illuminates upon reflection of light from the sun. This means it doesn't have power to shine on its own. When carefully observed, there are times it gets dark and beings to glow brighter over a period of time. This occurs because as the moon completes its four weeks lunar cycle round the earth, how much of its face we see illuminated by sunlight depends on the angle the Sun makes with the Moon.

There are 8 main types of the moon phases these includes:

--> New moon: This is when the moon is not visible to the earth because it's between the earth and the sun. It rises at sunrise and sets at sunset.

--> The waxing crescent: At this phase the moon gets brighter and illuminated from the sun that a crescent shape is seen.

--> First quarter: this occurs one week after the new moon. The moon rises at noon and sets at midnight.

--> The waxing gibbous: This occurs after the first quarter phase where more than half of the lit part of the moon is seen.

--> Full moon: This occurs when the moon and the sun are opposite each other. That is way it is said to rise at sunset and sets at sun rise.

--> The waning gibbous: this occurs when more than half of the lit part of the moon gradually becomes darker

--> Third quarter ( Last Quarter): The moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. This occurs a week after the full moon.

--> The waning crescent: This occurs after the last quarter phase where a very thin fading crescent shaped moon is seen, just before the Moon is invisible again at the start of the cycle, the new moon.

As of 2016, Nevada has a current minimum wage of $8.25 an hour ($/hr). If someone was really picky about how much they owed, how
xz_007 [3.2K]

Once again, you'd need to know that there are 60 seconds in a minute, and 60 minutes in an hour :)

I'd say converting the minimum wage into cents rather than dollars would make this problem a lot easier. $8.25 = 825 ¢.

So if this person is earning 825 ¢ in an hour, we should divide 825 by 60 to find out how much they're making in a minute:

825 ÷ 60 = 13.75 ¢

Now, we just need to divide by 60 again to work out how much that is in seconds:

13.75 ÷ 60 = 0.229 ¢

So to answer your question, this person would make 0.229 ¢ a second (¢/s) on the job with minimum wage. Converting this value to dollars wouldn't be viable (as it'd just be $0.00, so it's best to leave the answer in cents!)
