Answer:

Normal earning rate of Julio is $11.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the normal hourly rate of earning = $r per hour

Then for overtime earnings = 1.4 × $r per hour

Julio works for 30 hours so earnings = 30(r)

last he did overtime for 5 hours (35 - 30) so the earning for the overtime = 5(1.4r) = 7r

Total earning of Julio = 30r + 7r = $436

or 37r = $436

r = \frac{436}{37} = $11.78

Therefore, normal rate of Julio's earning is $11.78.

N = regular rate
1.4n= overtime rate

30n + 5(1.4n) = $436.60  (30 hours x regular rate n)  plus 5 hours at 1.4 times reg rate.

30n + 7n = $436.60    now add like terms
37n = $436.60    now divide both sides by 37
n= $11.80   
Check to see if my answer is reasonable 30 x 12= 360  + 5 x 10 x 1.4 = about 70 (notice that I used 10 instead of 12 here so I could do it in my head)
360 + 70 = 430 - close enough - my answer is reasonable
Check:
(30 x $11.80) + 5 ( 1.4 x 11.80
354 + 5( 16.52)
354 + 82.60 = 436.60    ($436.60)

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

western beach:  y = -2x + 100

dunes beach : y = 5x + 20

set the equations equal to each other

-2x + 100 = 5x + 20

100 - 20 = 7x

80 = 7x

80/7 = x

x ~ 11.43 years

In a chemistry lab, you have 2 vinegars. One is 5% acetic acid, and one is 6.5% acetic acid. You want to make 200 ml of a vinega
Iteru [2.4K]
We have 5% and 6.5% acetic acid solutions and we need 200 ml of 6% acetic acid.
Set up two equations:
f means 5% and s means 6.5%
A) f + s = 200
B) .05f + .065s = (.06 * 200)
Multiplying equation A by -.05
A) -.05f  -.05s = -10
B) .05f + .065s = 12 then adding both equations:
.015s = 2
<span> <span> <span> we need 133.33</span> ml of 6.5% acetic acid and
66.67 ml of 5% acetic acid solution.
</span> </span>
