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

$0.75+a=12.25
12.25-.0.75=11.50

PLEASE HELP!!! Show your work too, please!
dimulka [17.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

first fish tank: 95-4x

second fish tank: 40+5x

1. Define variable

The variable x represents the number of days.

2. Write the inequality

<em>95-4x=40+5x</em>

<em />

3. You probably don't need the answer but I am just going to solve.

The first fish tank will have less water than the second fish tank after 7 days.

<em>95-4x=40+5x </em>

<em>95-4(7)=40+5(7)</em>

<em>95-28=40+35</em>

<em>67=75</em>

<em>Since the first equation (95-4x) represents the first fish tank, and the second equation (40+5x) represents the second fish tank, the solution shows how the amount of water in the first fish tank is less than the amount of water un the second fish tank after 7 days.</em>
