An employee makes an hourly rate plus any tips they earn.

This tip employee made a total of $400 by working 28 hours last week.

If $253 of their total earnings was their tips .

Thus

Total hourly wage = Total wage - Tip amount

                               = $400 - $253

Hourly rate of pay = $5.25

Therefore hourly rate of pay is $5.25 .

Option (a) is correct .

step-by-step explanation:

given perimeter: 28cm

length: 9cm

atp,

2(l+w)=p of the reactangle

2(9+x)=28

18+2x=28

2x=28-18

x=10/2

x=5

therefore width is 5 cm

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
