The normal hourly rate is <u>$17.24</u>.

In the question, we are given that we are paid 1.5 times our normal hourly rate for each hour we work over 30 hours in a week.

We are asked to find the normal hourly rate if we work for 33 hours this week and earned $594.78.

We assume the normal hourly rate to be $x.

While working for 33 hours, we work 33 - 30 = 3 extra hours.

Thus, we are paid at the normal hourly rate of $x for 30 hours and at 1.5 times the normal hourly rate, which is $1.5x for the additional 3 hours.

Thus, the total earning can be shown as $x*30 + $1.5x*3 = $(30x + 4.5x) = $34.5x.

But, we are given that the total earnings for the week after working for 33 hours is $594.78.

Thus, we can equate the two to get an equation, 34.5x = 594.78, which on solving gives us x = 17.24.

Thus, the normal hourly rate is <u>$17.24</u>.

Solve for the m in the equation
velikii [3]

Answer:

m = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{m}{9 }  +  \frac{2}{3}   =  \frac{7}{3}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 99, the least common multiple of 9,39,3.

m + 6 =21

Subtract 6 from both sides.

m = 21 - 6

Subtract 6 from 21 to get 15.

m=15
