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.
Answer:
y < 5
<h2><u>
Step by step:</u></h2>
Step 1: Subtract 5y from both sides.
7y+2−5y<5y+12−5y
2y+2<12
Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.
2y+2−2<12−2
2y<10
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
< 
= y < 5
The numerator is the top number while the denominator is the bottom number. So 1 is the numerator and 6 is the denominator.
