Answer: £ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hours Lena works from Monday to Friday = 34 hours

Hours she works on Saturdays = 4

Overtime rate of Saturday = 1.5 times her normal rate

Let x be the normal rate.

Then , Her total earning = 34 x + 4 \times(1.5x) =34x+6x=40x

Since her total earnings for week = £ 320

So,

320=40x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{320}{40}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Thus, her normal rate of pay per hour = £ 8

Solve the equation. 2(3x – 5) = 8
stiks02 [169]

You would distibute first distribute

6x-10=8

add 10 on both sides

6x=18

Then you divide 6 on both sides to get x by itself so

x=3
