Joel earns $5.50 an hour and time-and-a-half for overtime. how much does he earn for a 44.5-hour week?

1 answer:

3 0

The expression which can be used to solve this problem is 5.50h + 1.5h.

Since the given data is 44.5 hour week, all we need to do is substitute the given data to the expression. Since it takes 56 hours a week for a complete office/working hour without overtime, Joel's 44.5 hour week means he did not have overtime hours. Therefore the solution is,

5.50(44.5) = 244.75 Dollars.

Find the distance between (2, 2) and (-4, 4). Round answer to the nearest tenth.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we need the distance formula, which is:

$\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

If we plug in the points, we get:

$\sqrt{(-4 - 2)^2 + (4 - 2)^2}$

If we simplify everything under the square root, we get:

$\sqrt{(-6)^2 + (2)^2}$

$\sqrt{36 + 4}$

$\sqrt{40}$

In decimal, the answer is 6.3

Help with this math question please

Cloud [144]

A = P( 1 + rt)
A/P = 1 + rt
A/P - 1 = rt
t = (( A/P)) - 1)/r

t = (( 5500/1000) - 1)/(6.25/100
t = (5.5 - 1)/0.0625
t = 4.5/0.0625 = 72 years

Answer it will take 72 Years...

Hope it helps!!!!!
