Daisies first summer job was working behind the counter at Dairy Queen he earned double time for any hours worked over 40 in a g
FrozenT [24]

Answer: the standard hourly pay is $3.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the standard hourly pay that he gets for the first 40 hours.

Therefore, the total amount that he gets for the first 40 hours of work in a given week is 40x.

At Dairy Queen, he earned double time for any hours worked over 40 in a given week. This means that the hourly rate is 2x

If during one week, he worked 51 hours, it means that the overtime is 51 - 40 = 11 hours

Total amount earned for overtime is

11 × 2x = 22x

If the total amount that he earned for the week is $189.10, then

40x + 22x = 189.1

62x = 189.1

x = 189.1/62 = 3.05

10. The sum of two numbers is 6 less than twice the first number. Their difference is 10 less than four times the second number.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

10 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first number.

Let y be the second number.

x + y = 2x - 6

x - y = 4y - 10

x = 4y - 10 + y

x = 5y - 10

(5y - 10) + y = 2(5y - 10) - 6

6y - 10 = 10y - 20 - 6

6y - 10 = 10y - 26

6y - 10y = -26 + 10

-4y = -16

y = 4

x - (4) = 4(4) - 10

x - 4 = 16 - 10

x - 4 = 6

x = 6 + 4

x = 10

Explain the relationship between the number of painters and sculptors enrolled in the art schools?
nasty-shy [4]

The relationship between the number of painters and sculptors enrolled in the art school can be considered a direct variation.

<h3>Direct variation</h3>

A direct variation as implied above means, the linear relationship between the number of painters and sculptors enrolled in the art school are directly proportional.

  • In essence, as the number of sculptors in the art schools increase, the number of painters increases too. This is because, more painters are needed to paint increasing work volume of the sculptors.
