Let her standard pay rate = x
She worked 40 hours for x per hour she also worked 5 hours at 1.5x ( time and a half)
Write an equation:
40x + 5(1.5x) = 1163.75
Simplify:
40x + 7.5x = 1163.75
Combine like terms:
47.5x = 1163.75
Divide both sides by 47.5
X = 24.50
Her regular hourly rate is $24.50
Answer:
let rate be x
by question
40x+7.5x=1163.75
x=1163.75/47.5=24.5
her regular income is $24.5 per hour.
40.56
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
The known number = 12
The unknown number = x
Result = 102
Product of 12 and a number= 12*x
= 12x
Tripled product of 12x= 3(12x)
=36x
36x = 102
Divide both sides by 36
x = 102/36
= 2.833
x=2.833
18
