Answer:
$6.07/hr. if I understand the question properly. See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't see the question, but will assume we want to find Larisa's base pay. The $7/hr given is the average for the work sequence noted in the problem. If this is incorrect, ignore the answer.
==================================
Let x be Larisa's base salary. We are told, I think, that in one stretch of time Larisa earned an average of $7/hour. That was composed of:
<u>Hours</u> <u>Rate($/hr)</u>
40 x
3 1.5x
<u> 6 </u> 2x
49
Her total income over this period would be:
40x +3(1.5x) + 6(2x) [The hours worked times the pay rate for each period]
Her average income per hour would be:
(40x +3(1.5x) + 6(2x))/49
which we are told is $7/hr.
(40x +3(1.5x) + 6(2x))/49 = 7
40x + 4.5x + 12x = 343
56.5x = 343
x = $6.07/hr
Easy divide 7 by 2 and how many teams are there? (In total)
5x + 8000 = 3x + 10000
x = 1000
Answer: If you’re doing algebra, -3<x or x<_4.
Another answer is -3<x<_4
