Let us assume that the number of hours of regular work day to be "X". Since the total number of hours worked is 11, the additional hours that the worker put in would be "11-X"

Now, we form the equation to solve for X.

The wage for a regular hours is $9 for X hours worked which would make the pay = 9X

The wage for additional "11-X" hours is $13.50 which would make the pay = (11-X)*13.50

The total the worker was paid for 11 hours is 114.75, so the equation would be

9X +(11-X)*13.50 = 114.75

9X +148.5-13.50X = 11.75

4.5X = 33.75

X = 7.5

So, the length of a regular workday is 7.5 hours

Ivahew [28]
To find the measure of angle 1, you add 33 and 57
That would equal 90
Since all triangles equal 180, you would subtract 90 from 180
So the answer would be 90.

How many pounds of coffee Worth
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

the number of pounds that should be mixed is 30 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of pounds that must be mixed is shown below:

Let us assume the number of pounds be x

Now the equation is

(x) (1) + (15) (1.60) = (x + 15) (1.20)

x + 24 = 1.20x + 18

24 - 18 = 1.20x - x

6 = 0.20x

x = 30 pounds  

Hence, the number of pounds that should be mixed is 30 pounds
