I am setting the week hourly rate to x, and the weekend to y.  Here is how the equation is set up:

13x + 14y = $250.90
15x + 8y = $204.70

This is a system of equations, and we can solve it by multiplying the top equation by 4, and the bottom equation by -7.  Now it equals:

52x + 56y = $1003.60
-105x - 56y = -$1432.90

Now we add these two equations together to get:

-53x = -$429.30 --> 53x = $429.30 --> (divide both sides by 53) x = 8.10.  This is how much she makes per hour on a week day.

Now we can plug in our answer for x to find y.  I am going to use the first equation, but you could use either.

$105.30 + 14y = $250.90.  Subtract $105.30 from both sides --> 14y = $145.60 divide by 14 --> y = $10.40

Now we know that she makes $8.10 per hour on the week days, and $10.40 per hour on the weekends.  Subtracting 8.1 from 10.4, we figure out that she makes $2.30 more per hour on the weekends than week days.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

His rate is 12 1/2 pages per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Gordon types 43 3/4 pages in 3 1/2 hours or Gordon types 175/4 pages in 7/2 hours./ We need to find its rate in pages per hour. So,

R=\dfrac{\dfrac{175}{4}\ \text{pages}}{\dfrac{7}{2}\ \text{hour}}\\\\R=\dfrac{175}{4}\times \dfrac{2}{7}\\\\R=12.5\ \text{pages per hour}\\\\R=12\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{pages per hour}

Hence, his rate is 12 1/2 pages per hour.
