Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Let x represents Sara's age, since Ralph is 3 times as old, the Ralph's age will be 3x.

In 4 years time, Sara will be  x+ 4 , Ralph will also be 3x + 4

It was said that Ralph will be as twice as Sara's age in 4 years

⇒ 3x + 4 = 2 ( x+4)

⇒  3x + 4 = 2x + 8

collecting the like terms

3x - 2x = 8 - 4

        x = 4

Since x represents Sara's age, then Sara is 4 years and since Ralph is presently 3 times Sara's age, then Ralph's age is 3 x 4 = 12 years

The local hospital offers an incentive for nurses to work longer shifts. After a regular 8-hour shift, they can make double time
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

$26.70/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at 1 day.

She works a 12 hour shift. For the first 8 hours, she receives her regular hourly salary. That means 8 hours of pay at her regular hourly salary.

Then she works another 4 hours at her overtime pay. Her overtime pay is twice her regular salary, so the extra 4 hours at overtime pay are paid as if they were 8 hours of regular work. In effect, she is earning 16 hours of regular pay per day.

Monday through Friday means 5 days of work per week.

5 days/week * 16 hours/day = 80 hours/week

She is earning as if she were working 80 hours of regular pay per week.

base salary = (gross weekly income)/(effective number of hours in 1 week)

base salary = $2136/80

base salary = $26.70/hour
