Answer:
If Andrew works for 30 for $4 he will have a total wage of 30×4=$120
And gets additional $5for every hr worked beyond 30hrs in that week
So he gets a total of 5(x-30)
So if he works for 40hrs he gets a total wage of
5(40-30)=50
120+50=$170
If he works for 50 hours he gets Total wage of
5(50-30)=100
120+100=$220
I think x= -7 but I'm not to sure
Answer:
<u>28.5 and 32.5</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>create an equation to solve:</em>
x + (x+4) =61
2x + 4 = 61 combine like terms
2x = 57 subtract 4 from both sides
x = 28.5 divide 2 from both sides
28.5 is the smaller number
the larger number is 4 more so:
28.5 + 4 = 32.5
32.5 is the larger number
check your work:
28.5 + 32.5 = 61
