Question

10) Eve has a fall job to pick pumpkins at the farm.

Answer 1

Answer:

$37.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Eve earns:

• $4.00 per 12 minutes spent picking pumpkins
• $4.40 per 12 minutes spent picking apples

Money earned from picking pumpkins:

1 hour = 60 minutes

$\begin{aligned}\implies \sf Money\:earned & = \sf Salary \times 60\:minutes\\\\& = \sf \ 4.00\:per\:12\:minutes \times 60\:minutes\\\\& =\sf \dfrac{\ 4.00}{12\:minutes} \times 60\:minutes\\\\ & = \sf \ 4.00 \times \dfrac{60\:minutes}{12\:minutes}\\\\ & = \sf \ 4.00 \times 5\\\\ & = \sf\ 20.00\end{aligned}$

Money earned from picking apples:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \sf Money\:earned & = \sf Salary \times 48\:minutes\\\\& = \sf \ 4.40\:per\:12\:minutes \times 48\:minutes\\\\& =\sf \dfrac{\ 4.40}{12\:minutes} \times 48\:minutes\\\\ & = \sf \ 4.40 \times \dfrac{48\:minutes}{12\:minutes}\\\\ & = \sf \ 4.40 \times 4\\\\ & = \sf\ 17.60\end{aligned}$

Total earned:

= money earned from picking pumpkins + money earned from picking apples

= $20.00 + $17.60

= $37.60
