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 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>

How can I solve this problem?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

25*pi or

78.5 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there was no shaded area, the area of the circle would be pi * r^2

r = 10

Area = pi * 10^2

Area = 100 * pi

Since there is a shaded area, the shaded part looks to be 1/4 of the whole. There's no indication of what it actually is, but 1/4 should be close enough.

Area_shade = 1/4 (100*pi)

Area_shade = 25 * pi

That's one answer.

Another is 25 * 3.14 = 78.5 square units
