Susan is trying to decide between two jobs. One job pays $12 per hour for the first 36 hours and $15 per hour for any additional

hours. The other job is $11.50 per hour for the first 35 hours and $18 per hour for any additional hours. For which job will she earn more if she works 40 hours a week? How much more per year will this be if she works 50 weeks a year? Show work.

Answer:

For the first question (For which job will she earn more if she works 40 hours a week), the answer is the second job.

For the second question (How much more per year will this be if she works 50 weeks per year), the answer is 25$ extra a year.

First i multiplied $12 times 36.

$12 x 36 = $432

Then i multiplied $15 times 4.

$15 x 4 = $60

Now add those together

$432 + $60 = $492

That's how much she would make in a week for the first job, if she worked 40 hours a week.

For the second job, i did the exact same process.

$11.50 x 35 = $402.5

$18 x 5 = $90

$402.5 + $90 = $492.5

She would get 50 more cents a week, if she worked 40 hours a week.

For the second question, i multiplied the first job total by 50, since she is working 50 weeks a year.

$492 x 50 = $24,600

Thats her total of a year, for the first job.

Do this with the second job.

$492.5 x 50 = $24,625

As you can see, she would get $25 more in the second job, than the first job.

I hope this helped!

Simplify 4√16 + 8√16
Mumz [18]

4\sqrt{16} + 8\sqrt{16}:

Since \sqrt{1} =1, we get:

4\cdot \:1\cdot \:6+8\cdot \:1\cdot \:6=24+48=72

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7\sqrt{4} *3\sqrt{8}

We have \sqrt{4}=2

simplify \sqrt{8} = \sqrt{2^3} = \sqrt{2^2*2}

then the radical rule is used: \quad \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b}

⇒ \sqrt{2^2*2} = \sqrt{2^2} \sqrt{2}= \sqrt{4}\sqrt{2} =2\sqrt{2}

Now we have \sqrt{4}=2 and \sqrt{8}=2 \sqrt{2}

7\sqrt{4} *3\sqrt{8} = 7*2*3*2\sqrt{2} = 84 \sqrt{2}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2\sqrt{4}+5 \sqrt{9}

2\sqrt{4} =2*2= 4 and 5\sqrt{9} =5*3= 15

2\sqrt{4}+5 \sqrt{9} = 4+15 = 19

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4\sqrt{5} -2\sqrt{5} = 2\sqrt{5}

since 2\sqrt{5} is the half of 4\sqrt{5}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-4\sqrt{2}\:+\:5\sqrt{2} =1 \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{2}\\    <em>(-4+5=1)</em>

If AABC is reflected across the y-axis, what are the coordinates of A'?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: (-2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

When reflecting over the y axis, (x, y) becomes (-x, y).

So A(2, -5) turns into (-2, -5).

Multiply and simplify. 5x^2 / y^3 * 4y^2 / 10x
Marta_Voda [28]
For this case we have the following expression:
 \frac{5x^2}{y^3} * \frac{4y^2}{10x}
 Rewriting the expression we have:
 \frac{20x^2y^2}{10xy^3}
 Then, simplifying and by properties of exponents we have:
 {2x^{2-1}y^{2-3}} &#10;&#10;{2xy^{-1}}
 Rewriting we have::
 \frac{2x}{y}
 Answer:
 The simplified expression is given by:
 \frac{2x}{y}
