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:
The regular hourly rate is $9.25/hr
