Answer:
h = 13.333 +693.333/r
Step-by-step explanation:
For h hours, Brandee's pay will be ...
pay = 40r +(h -40)(1.5r) . . . . 40 hours at rate r + overtime (h-40) hours at 1.5r
pay = 40r +1.5hr -60r . . . . . eliminate parentheses
pay = 1.5hr -20r . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
Solving for h, we have ...
pay +20r = 1.5hr . . . . . . . . . . add 20r
h = (pay +20r)/(1.5r) . . . . . . . . divide by 1.5r
For the given pay of 800 +240 = 1040, we have ...
h = (1040 +20r)/(1.5r)
h = 13.333 +693.333/r . . . . . simplify to 2 terms

<em>Additional comments</em>
You need to know r to find the number of hours Brandee worked. She got paid $800 for a presumed 40-hours of regular time, so made r = $20 per hour. The above formula will tell you she worked 48 hours in the pay period.
The third list. Median is the middle of the list, from greatest to least. The third list has 7 as its median. Ok. Next, the mode is the number that appears the most. 7 appears twice, while the other numbers appear once. Thus, making the third list our answer. :)
B. 20x and .8x because they have the same variable
Last one is your answer.
X cannot be repeated, but y can
