Andrew is paid $4 per hour for the first 30 hours he works each week. he makes $5 per hour for each hour he works over 30 hours

Ksivusya [100]

W = 120 + 5(h - 30).

So, if he works 35 hours, he will earn:

120 + 5(35 - 30) = 120 + 5(5) = 120 + 25 = $145.

If he works 42 hours, he will earn:

120 + 5(42 - 30) = 120 + 5(12) = 120 + 60 = $180.
