Answer 1

Answer:

Rachel will earn $85 in 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rachel earned $34 in 4 hours at her job today.

Suppose, she will earn $x$ dollar in 10 hours tomorrow.

So, according to ratio of 'dollar' and 'hours', the equation will be.....

$\frac{34}{4}=\frac{x}{10}$

After cross multiplying, we will get.....

$4x= 34*10\\ \\ 4x= 340\\ \\ x=\frac{340}{4}=85$

Thus, Rachel will earn $85 in 10 hours.

Answer 2

Answer:

85 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Rachel earned $34 in 4 hours

To Find : how much she will earn in 4 hours?

Solution:

Since we are given that

She earns in 4 hours = $34

So, She earns in 1 hour = $\frac{34}{4} = 8.5$

She earns in 10 hours:

$= 8.5*10$

$= 85$

Thus she earns $85 in 10 hours .

Hence Rachel earns $85 if she works 10 hours at same hourly rate.
