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>

2. c = 47,000 × n, where c is the cost of n number of bears.

3. a) The cost to ride 5 rides = $20.50, the cost to ride 8 rides = $28.00

The equation for the pattern, C(x) = 15.50 + 2.50 (r - 3), where C is the cost and r is the number of rides.

b) The cost to ride 12 rides = $36.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; To find the cost of one bear, we divide the cost of bears by the number.

If 4 bears cost $188,000, 1 bear costs = \frac{188000}{4} = $47,000.

If 7 bears cost $329,000, 1 bear costs = \frac{329,000}{7} = $47,000.

So the equation is c = 47,000 × n, where c is the cost to buy n bears.

Step 2; For every additional ride, the price increases by $2.50. So the equation for the pattern is C(x) = 13.50 + 2.50 (x - 3).

When the number of rides is 5, C(5) = 15.50 + 2.50 (5-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (2) = 15.50 + 5.0 = $20.50.

When the number of rides is 8, C(8) = 15.50 + 2.50 (8-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (5) = 15.50 + 12.50 = $28.00.

When the number of rides is 12, C(12) = 15.50 + 2.50 (12-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (9) = 13.50 + 22.5 = $36.00.

prem gave 1/3 of his property for charity of the rest he gave 2/3 to his wife and rest divided equally between his son and daugh
Anna11 [10]

Given parameters:

Fraction given to charity = \frac{1}{3}

Fraction given to wife = \frac{2}{3}

Unknown:

Fraction given to son and daughter =?

Solution:

Let the total property  = x

    Fraction given to charity  = \frac{1}{3} x

    Fraction given to wife  = \frac{2}{3} x

The remaining was given to son and daughter = F

    So;

     Total property  = fraction given to charity + fraction given to wife + fraction given to son and daughter

         x  = \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x + F

            F = x - (\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x)

            F = 0

The son and daughter will not inherit anything
