This equation can be set up letting x be the hourly rate:40x+1.5x(52-40)=638 [40 times the rate, plus 1.5 times the rate for the hours over 40 equals the pay]40x+78x-60x=63858x=638x=11 hourly rate is $11/hr
Formula for amount for compound interest:
Amount, A = P(1 + r/100)^n
Where r is rate, P is principal, and n is the number of years.
P = 2000, r = 5, n = t years.
A = 2000( 1 + 5/100)^t
A = 200(1+0.05)^t
A = 2000(1.05)^t
A(t) = 2000(1.05)^t
Use the Pythagorean therm , you know the a^2+b^2=c^2
Answer:First you have to add all of the shirts together, which gives you: 40
Since 15 of those are black, then you need to put those 15 over the total number of 40, making it 15/40.
Then you must simplify by the highest number that will go into both, and since that number is 5, it will then go into 15 three times and it will go into 40 eight times.
That leaves you with the answer of: 3/8
