-4 < 6
Negative number always less than positive number
Let's re-read the statement and question, and then break it down.
He charges a flat fee of $38, plus $22 per hour.
A flat fee of $38 is only a one-time pay, and will never be paid for again.
This means if after two hours, we only add $38 once overall, never more.
Every hour that goes by, he earns $22 each hour.
Now that we've broken this down, we can make an equation.
Let's do 1 hour.
1(22) + 38 = 22 + 38, = 60.
For 1 hour he earns $60.
Let's do 2 hours.
2(22) + 38 = 44 + 38, = 82.
For 2 hours he earns $82.
Let's do 3 hours.
3(22) + 38 = 66 + 38, = 104.
For 3 hours he earns $104.
Let's do 4 hours.
4(22) + 38 = 88 + 38, = 126.
For 4 hours he earns $126.
This is a pattern.
Now let's do 8 hours, which is the main question, "How much does he make in 8 hours?".
8(22) + 38 = 176 + 38, = 214.
For 8 hours he earns $214.
I hope this helps!
Answer:67.5294117647
Step-by-step explanation: Or 67.5
-12=4(x-7)-8x
One solution was found :
x = -4
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-12-(4*(x-7)-8*x)=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
-12 - (4 • (x - 7) - 8x) = 0
Step 2 :
Step 3 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
4x + 16 = 4 • (x + 4)
Equation at the end of step 3 :
4 • (x + 4) = 0
Step 4 :
Equations which are never true :
4.1 Solve : 4 = 0
Hope this helps you, Have a nice day.
