Andrew makes $6 an hour plus $9 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 40 hours for the week

.
Part A: Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, W, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime.

Part B: Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, S, for working y hours of overtime. Hint: Remember to include in the equation the amount earned from working 40 hours.

Part C: Andrew earned $330 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did he work?

Part A: W = 6x 

Part B: Since without overtime it is 6 $ per hour and you need to make 40 hours 
you would multiply 6 *40 = 240
So <u>S = 240 + 9y

</u>Part C: <u><em>Substitute</em></u><u />
Since Andrew earned 330 you would substitute it for <em>S</em> 
<u>
330 = 240 + 9y
</u> <--- solve for <u /><u><em>y</em><em /></u><em />

330  ( - 240 ) = 240 ( - 240 ) 9y  < ---- subtract 240 from each side 
90 = 9y 
90 / 9 = 9y / 9 <----- divide by 9 

10 =y   Andrew worked 10 hours for overtime  

<u><em /></u><u><em /></u><em /><u><em>Check </em></u><u><em /></u><em /> 
<u><em />
</u>
<u><em>330</em></u><u><em /></u><em> </em>= 240 + 9(10)
<u><em>330</em></u><u><em /></u><em /> = 240 + 90 
<u><em>330</em></u><u><em /></u><em /> = 330 <-- your answer is <u><em>10</em></u>

Ruby red paint costs $0.50 per square inch. A ball is painted ruby red and costs $100.00 to paint. What is the diameter of the b
8090 [49]
The diameter can be obtained by the formula A = pi*r^2

First, multiply 0.50 * 100 to obtain the area of the ball, then simplify and solve for the radius. Doubling the radius would yield the diameter. This is shown below:

Area of the ball = 0.50 * 100 = 50 in^2
<span>A = pi*r^2
</span>50 = (3.14)*r^2
r = 3.99 = approx. 4
diameter = 2r
Diameter = 8 inches.

Among the choices, the correct answer is C. 8.0 in.

A cone has a radius of 3 and a height given by the expression 2a. Which expression represents the volume of the cone?
DiKsa [7]
V=(1/3)hπr^2 where h=height and r=radius
given
radius=3
height=2a

r=3
h=2a

v=(1/3)hπr^2
v=(1/3)(2a)π(3)^2
v=(1/3)2aπ9
v=6aπ


so the expression would be some variaant of v=6aπ
