Question

If y represents yearly salary, w represents weekly salary, b represents biweekly salary, and m represents monthly salary, which of the following statements are true?

Select all that apply.

A. b=y26
B. y=m12
C. y=52w
D. 12m=y
E. 26y=b
F. y=52w

Answer 1

B. y=m12

C. y=52w

D. 12m=y

F. y=52w

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 months in a year so y = 12m or m12 is correct (Choice B)

Choice D 12m = y is the same as y = 12m; whether y is on the right or left side these two equations are the same

There are 52 weeks in a year so y = 52w is correct(Choices C and F). Seems choices C and F are duplicates

Choices A and E are duplicates. It doesn't matter whether b is on the right or left of the equation. It is the same. In any case b= 26y or 26y = b is stating that yearly salary x 26 = biweekly salary. Not correct; it should be y = 26b

Correct choices:

B. y=m12

C. y=52w

D. 12m=y

F. y=52w
