(a)

We are given

A worker on the production line is paid a base salary of ​$230.00 per week

so, base salary =230

Let's assume number pencils produced as x

plus ​$0.78 for each unit produced

now, we can find equation for earnings

E(x)=230+0.78x

now, we are given

her earnings of ​$446.84 for a week when she produced x units

so, we can set E(x)=446.84

and then we can solve for x

446.84=230+0.78x

230\cdot \:100+0.78x\cdot \:100=446.84\cdot \:100

23000+78x=44684

23000+78x-23000=44684-23000

78x=21684

\frac{78x}{78}=\frac{21684}{78}

x=278

so, number of pencils = 278........Answer

(b)

If the worker had produced twice that number of​ units

so, number of pencils =2*278=556

now, we can find earnings

E(x)=230+0.78x

now, we can plug x=556

E(556)=230+0.78*556

E(556)=663.68.................Answer

J/a = 3

In ratio form,. J : a = 3 : 1

Where J. represent John.

and. a represent the apprentice

Hence,

the area john will pace

1.n represents the number of tickets she bought.

2.27.75n represents the total cost of n tickets

3.Without the handling fee Olga paid 138.75

4.To get 27.75n by itself on one side of the equation you can move 5.5 from the left to right of the equation

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>

n is the total number of tickets Olga bought.

27.75n represents the total cost of n tickets.It is given in the question that one ticket costs $27.75 and thus n number of tickets will cost $27.75 n.

The handling fee is 5.5

27.75n+5.5=144.25

27.75n=144.25-5.5=138.75

without the handling fee Olga will pay $138.75
