Answer:

r = \$14.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Normal Hour = 32 hours

Overtime = Hours above 32

Rate for Overtime = 1.4 times normal rate

Earnings = $535.62

Required

Determine the normal hour pay

First, we need to determine the hours worked overtime.

This is:

Overtime = 43 - 32

Overtime = 11

The equation that binds all the parameters is:

Earnings = Normal\ Hour * Normal\ Rate + Overtime * Overtime\ Rate

This gives:

535.62 = 21 * r + 11 * 1.4r

535.62 = 21r + 15.4r

535.62 = 36.4r

Solve for r

r = 535.62/36.4

r = \$14.71

2x - 5= 5x + 7 linear equations
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

-4 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5= 5x + 7

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x - 5= 5x-2x + 7

-5 = 3x+7

Subtract 7 from each side

-5-7 = 3x+7-7

-12 = 3x

Divide by 3

-12/3 = 3x/3

-4 =x
