Answer:
Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set this up with 2 variables: lets say that Maria's book length is x and Brandon's is y.
We can see that Maria's book is 56 pages longer than Brandon's and can come up with an equation:
x=y+56
We also see that their booklengths add up to 348, and can get:
x+y=348
From here, we solve for x and y. We can use substitution to find y.
x+y=348
(y+56)+y=348
2y=292
y=146
Here we plug in for x:
x=y+56
x=(146)+56
x=202
Therefor we get that Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long
Answer:
$116.53
Step-by-step explanation:
Bryan earn's 11.80 per hour. He is paid time and a half for hours worked over 8hrs in a day. So if you divide 11.80 by 2, you get 5.90.
11.80+5.90=17.70. This is the amount he gets paid if he works overtime.
If Bryan worked 9.25 hrs yesterday, we already know that he made $94.40 in 8 hours. We have to find the amount he got paid for working over time.
The remaining hours are 1.25. We can add $17.70 to 94.40 to get 112.10. Now we have to figure out the remainder which is a quarter of an hour. Multiply 17.70 by .25 and you will get 4.43.
The total amount he got paid for working over time was $116.53.
