Part A.

Amount of money earned = Regular rate per hour * Number of working hours

M = 12 x

 

Part B.

Amount of wages earned = Regular rate per hour * Maximum number of regular working hours + Overtime rate per hour * Excess working hours

T = 12 * 30 + 16 * y

T = 360 + 16 y

or

T = 16 y + 360

 

Part C.

Given T = 408, find y:

408 = 16 y + 360

y = 3 hrs

Therefore the total hours Gary worked that week is,

<span>x + y = 30 + 3 = 33 hrs        </span>

<span>(x = 30 since that is the maximum limit for regular working hours)</span>

At the product store you can buy four bags of bananas for 2084 how much would it cost if you were to buy 3 bags
Darya [45]

Answer:

1563

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 1 bag of bananas

so, 4x=2084

Divide 2084 by 4 to find how much 1 bag of bananas would cost. 2084/4= 521.

To find how much 3 bags of bananas would cost, multiply 521 (the price of one bag) by 3. 521x3= 1563

3 bags of bananas are $1563
