Simplify the expression. -5/8(-3/8-1/4)

prisoha [69]

Answer:

25/64

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this answer, first you need to use the distributive property:

(-3/8)(-5/8) - (1/4)(-5/8)

Next, multiply:

15/64 - (-5/32)

Change the negative signs into a positive sign:

15/64 + 5/32

Multiply 5/32 by 2 on both top and bottom:

15/64 + (5)(2)/(32)(2)

You will then get:

15/64 + 10/64

Now, add the numerators. You will get:

25/64

This is your answer. I hope it helped!

Allison earns $14 an hour plus $20 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 35 hours for the w

Ronch [10]

Part a) Create an equation that shows the amount of money earned, E, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime

Let

E-------> the amount of money earned

x------> number of hours worked

we know that

For $x\leq35$

$E=14x$

therefore

the answer part a) is

$E=14x$

Part b) Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, T, for working y hours of overtime

Let

T-------> the amount of money earned

y------> number of hours of overtime

we know that

$T=14*35+20y$

$T=\$490+20y$

therefore

the answer part b) is

$T=\$490+20y$

Part c) Allison earned $610 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did she work?

we know that

$35\ hours=\$490$

$\$610-\$490=\$120$

Divide $\$120$ by $\$20$ ----> to obtain the hours of overtime

$\frac{120}{20}=6\ hours\ of\ overtime$

Allison works

$35+6=41\ hours$

$Regular=35\ hours\\ Overtime=6\ hours$

therefore

the answer part c) is

$Regular=35\ hours\\ Overtime=6\ hours$
