Answer:

Richard is  making $9.6 per hour now

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial amount Richard was earning =  $10/hr

Due to lass in productivity 20% pay was cut

Amount Richard was earning after 20% pay cut =  $8/hour.

After few again due to increase in productivity Diane gave a 20% raise.

To Find:

How much is Richard making now = ?

Solution:

Let the amount that Richard is making now be x

Then

x =  8+  20% of 8

x = 8 + \frac{20}{100} \times 8

x = 8 + 0.2 \times 8

x = 8 + 1.6

x = 9.6

Morgarella [4.7K]
Let h = Hannah's age.

Hannah is older than her sibling, and their ages are consecutive odd integers. Therefore, h = an odd number and the sibling's age =  h-2.
 
The sum of their ages is 92, therefore
h + (h-2) = 92
2h - 2 = 92

2h = 94
h = 47 years

Answer:
The equation to find Hannah's age is  2h - 2 = 92.
This yields Hannah's age as 47 years.

Marrrta [24]

Answer: 0.20 Ω

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a multi-cab starter motor has a current of 60.0 A and a voltage of 12 V. The resistance of the starter motor will be calculated thus:

Current (I) = 60.0A

Voltage (V) = 12V

Resistance = Unknown

Since Voltage = Current × Resistance

Therefore, Resistance = Voltage / Current

= 12/60

= 0.20 Ω

The resistance of the motor is 0.20 Ω
