If these both men were working at normal hours, and then, (John) worked "2 more hours" than Gary has, this would just mean that he has worked more.

x+2= x+2.

Now if John has worked the double amount, 4 more times than Gary's usual hours, this would mean something quite different.

Then the expression would look like, (x+2×4x)

We don't know how many hours are the "usual hours", this is what "x" would then represent.

John has then worked (4×2+x) more hours than Gary.

Your answer: (4×2+x)

First verify it holds for n=1
then you are allowed to assume it holds for n and you can start with the induction step

for n+1 instead of inserting it into the equation, add it to both sides and transform it to the original formula to proof its equality

1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+...+n^{2}+(n+1)^{2}=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6} +(n+1)^{2} \\ =\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)+6(n+1)^{2} }{6}\\ =\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)+6(n+1)(n+1)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(n(2n+1)+6(n+1))}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)((2n^{2}+n)+6(n+1))}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(2n^{2}+7n+6)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(n+2)(2n+3)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)((n+1)+1)(2(n+1)+1)}{6}

this equals the original formula if you had inserted n+1, proving the correctness

How many hours would someone earns 7.50 per hour have to work to earn $116.25
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Let h = amount of hours

7.5h=116.25

Since they earn $7.50 per hour, we can multiply that by an unknown amount of hours to get $116.25. Let's solve:

7.5h=116.25

Divide both sides by 7.5 to isolate the h, amount of hours.

\frac{7.5h}{7.5}=\frac{116.25}{7.5}

Simplify.

h=15.5

In conclusion, someone would have to work 15.5 hours to earn $116.25 if they earn $7.50 per hour.
