Answer 2

Answer:

105 shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

Hourly net rate of pay = $12

1 shift = 8 hours

⇒ net pay per shift = $12 × 8 = $96

Total cost  = tuition + residence + books

                  = $4500 + $4800 + $700

                  = $10,000

To calculate how many shifts Joanne needs to work, divide the total cost by the pay per shift and round it up:

Number of shifts = total cost ÷ net pay per shift

                            = $10,000 ÷ $96

                            = 104.1666666...

                            = 105 shifts

Note: we need to round up, as if Joanne works 104 shifts, she will earn $9,984 which is not quite enough to pay for tuition, residence and books.
