Jennifer earns $5.50 per hour
Edward earns ($5.50*1.8) $9.90 per hour
Edward earns more per hour
To find out how many hours they'd have to work to make 50$, we would just divide $50 by their hourly wage.
Jennifer=50/5.50=9.09 hours since you cant have 0.09 hours round up
Jennifer=10 hours to make at least $50 dollars
Edward=50/9.90=5.05 hours since you cant have 0.05 hours round up
Edward=6 hours to make at least $50 dollars
**Edit. Since Edward earns 1.8 times what Jennifer earns, that means he earns 180% of what she earns or 80% more. So we can tell that he earns more just by the 1.8.
1.8=180%

Answer:
$129,992
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a geometric series is given by ...
Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)
Here, the first term is 24000, and the growth factor r is 1+4% = 1.04. The sum is then ...
S5 = 24000·(1.04^5 -1)/(1.04 -1) ≈ 129992
The total earned over 5 years was $129,992.
___
A spreadsheet can list the annual salaries and add them up. The salary each year is 1.04 times that of the previous year. That is shown in the attachment.
Answer: 3 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there are 48 kids in Elm street.
12 of them are boys, then the number of girls will be:
48 - 12 = 36
So there are 12 boys and 36 girls.
Then the ratio of girls to boys is 36:12
We can divide both numbers by the same number and we will get an equivalent ratio, if we divide by 12 in both sides, we have:
36/12 : 12/12
3 : 1
Then the ratio is 3 to 1.
What is the question here that I should answer?
Both base and height of the sail is 40 1/2 feet.
A sail is triangular in shape. Finding the area of a triangle is multiplying its base and height and dividing the product by 2.
A = 1/2 bh
Area = 40 1/2 or 40.50 sq. ft
Since base and height are equal.
40.50 x 2 = 81
bh = 81
bh = 81 ÷ 2
b = 40 1/2 ft
h = 40 1/2 ft
