Answer:

The equation is: x+0.75=12.25

Her hourly wage before her raise was $11.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Marietta was given a raise of $0.75 per hour, which gave her a new wage of $12.25 per hour.

Let the previous wage was $x.

It is given that her raise is $0.75, thus the expression is:

x+0.75

This gave her a new wage of $12.25 per hour.

Thus, the equation is:

x+0.75=12.25

Now solve for x.

Subtract 0.75 from both the sides.

x=12.25-0.75

x=11.50

Hence, her hourly wage before her raise was $11.50

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

50 legs

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a dog has 4 legs, a cat has 4 legs, a giraffe has 4 legs, a duck has 2 legs, and a chicken has 2 legs. So, we want to calculate 2(4)+4(4)+1(4)+5(4)+1(2)+3(2), right?

Wrong! It's a trick question! The chickens aren't on the floor, so they don't count. So, we really want 2(4)+4(4)+1(4)+5(4)+1(2).

We multiply it out to get 8+16+4+20+2.

We add these up to get 50.

So, our answer is \boxed{50} legs.
