If you are being asked to simplify, just combine like terms; such as, all the g’s and all the numbers so, your answer should look something like: 7g+6
<span>(a) 5(3m+2) = 15m + 10
(b) 6(g+h) = 6g + 6h
(c) 4d+8 = 4(d + 2)
(d) 21p+35q = 7(3p + 5q)
(e) 18x+9y = 9(2x + y)</span>
Answer:
a. O = h - 40
b. 0, 4, 8, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let numver of overtime hours Jim workes for defined by O.
Standard working hours in a week for Jim = 40 Hours
If Jim is working for h hours then number of overtime hours will be given as difference between total hours he worked and standard working hours in a week.
⇒ O = h - 40
now, if jim has worked for 40, 44, 48 and 52 hours then his over time for all these cases will be
O = 40 - 40 = 0 Hours
O = 44 - 40 = 4 Hours
O = 48 - 40 = 8 Hours
O = 52 - 40 = 12 Hours respectively.
