Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
27 is the answer cause 53-26=27 and 26+27=53
Answer:
h = 13.333 +693.333/r
Step-by-step explanation:
For h hours, Brandee's pay will be ...
pay = 40r +(h -40)(1.5r) . . . . 40 hours at rate r + overtime (h-40) hours at 1.5r
pay = 40r +1.5hr -60r . . . . . eliminate parentheses
pay = 1.5hr -20r . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
Solving for h, we have ...
pay +20r = 1.5hr . . . . . . . . . . add 20r
h = (pay +20r)/(1.5r) . . . . . . . . divide by 1.5r
For the given pay of 800 +240 = 1040, we have ...
h = (1040 +20r)/(1.5r)
h = 13.333 +693.333/r . . . . . simplify to 2 terms

<em>Additional comments</em>
You need to know r to find the number of hours Brandee worked. She got paid $800 for a presumed 40-hours of regular time, so made r = $20 per hour. The above formula will tell you she worked 48 hours in the pay period.
I believe that y=-1.5x-6 is the answer.
