Answer:

$9.25/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let regular hourly rate be "x"

Total hours worked = 54

6 of which are on Sunday (paid TWICE)

54 - 6 = 48

So, hours over 40 are:

48 - 40 = 8 hours (PAID 1.5 times)

So,

40 hours paid "x"

8 hours paid (1.5x)

6 hours paid (2x)

Which totals 592

We can write:

40x + 8(1.5x) + 6(2x) = 592

Now we can solve this for x to get our answer:

40x + 8(1.5x) + 6(2x) = 592\\40x+12x+12x=592\\64x=592\\x=\frac{592}{64}\\x=9.25

The regular hourly rate is $9.25/hr
