Answer:

She worked for 55 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Hourly\ Rate = \$4.50

Tips = \$156

Earnings = \$403.50

Required

Determine the number of hours worked

Represent the number of hours with h.

If 1 hour = 4.50

h hours = 4.50 * h

Hence:

Her earnings can be represented as

Earnings = Tips + Total\ Hourly\ Wages

This gives

403.50 = 156 + 4.50 * h

403.50 = 156 + 4.50h

Collect Like Terms

4.50h = 403.50 - 156

4.50h = 247.50

Solve for h

h = 247.50/4.50

h = 55

Hence:

She worked for 55 hours

Kelly is 3 years younger than her sister. The sum of their ages is 34 years. How old is Kelly and how old is her sister? AN EQUA
KiRa [710]
Kelly's sister is x years old.
Kelly is 3 years younger than her sister, so Kelly is x - 3 years old.
The sum of their ages is x + x - 3 = 2x - 3.
The sum of their ages is 34, so

2x - 3 = 34

2x = 37

x = 18.5 Kelly's sister's age.

x - 3 = 18.5 - 3 = 15.5 Kelly's age.

Kelly's sister is 18.5 years old.
Kelly is 15.5 years old.
