Answer:

  1. Is a larger (more positive) than b?
  2. Is c larger (more positive) than d?

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a and b are less than zero, both are negative, but we don't know their order. We need to ask the order of a and b.

Since c and d are greater than zero, both are positive, but we don't know their order. We need to ask the order of c and d.

If you know a < b, then their order left to right on the number line will be a, b. Otherwise, it will be b, a.

If you know c < d, then their order left to right on the number line will be c, d. Otherwise it will be d, c.

Depending on the answers to the questions above, the order will be one of ...

  • a, b, c, d
  • b, a, c, d
  • a, b, d, c
  • b, a, d, c

As you can see, a and b will always be left of c and d.

At the fair 4 employees were paid $8.75 an hour to work at a funnel cake stand. They worked 8 hours at regular pay then for 5 ho
nordsb [41]

Answer:

$125.25

Step-by-step explanation:

8.75*h+11.25*e

h is hours regular pay and e is extra pay for overtime. Since its an extra $2.50 for overtime, add that to the regular pay. Put in the hours:

8.75*8+11.25*5

Simplify by multiplying 8.75 by 8

70+11.25*5

Simplify by multiplying 11.25 by 5

70+56.25

Add

70+56.25=126.25

Since it says how much did each earn, as in individually, leave it as it is (unless regular pay was $2.18 an hour, which would be a rip-off). I'm pretty sure including the number of employees was meant to throw you off.
