Answer: The waiter earns a standard wage of $7 per hour of work

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the waiter in the question earned a total of $128 for 6 hours. This means that his earning for one hour is:-

6 hours ------- $128

1 hour -------- $?

Therefore; 1/6 × 128

= $21.33

So, the waiter earned approximately $21 per hour.

Now, this also includes the tip he earned that is not part of his standard wage.

If we are to determine his standard wage for an hour, we will do this by subtracting the tip he earned over that period from his total earnings and then divide the result by the number of hours the waiter worked.

His standard wage for the six hours of work is:

= $128 - $86

= $42

So, if he earned a total standard wage of $42 for the six hours he worked, then his earning per hour is:

6(six) hours -------- $42

1 hour -------- $?

= 1/6 × 42

= $7.

We have found that the waiter earns a standard wage of $7 per hour of work before the inclusion of tips or other incentives.

Answer:

The waiter earns $7 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount a waiter earns per hour at work given the total he had earned including tips.

To solve this question, we can see that we have been given the total amount he has earned and also the amount he has also earned in tips.

Now, to get the standard amount he’s supposed to earn per hour, firstly, we have to subtract the amount he has earned in tips from the total. Mathematically that is 128-86 = $42

This means, by standard he has earned $42 in six hours. Now, we need to calculate the amount she earns by hour.

To do this, we simply divide the total amount earned by the number of hours.

Mathematically that is $42/6 hours = $7 per hour

40mph for Car B I think. 45mph for Car A. 45(mph) times 4(h) is 180(distance) and 40 times 4.5 is also 180. Sorry if I'm wrong.
