8 0

Answer:

b. $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take a step by step approach by simplifying each sentence:

Sentence 1: Hector works 12 hours per week at a part-time  hours per week at a part-time job

Number of hours worked per week  = 12hours

Sentence 2:  His original pay rate was $8.00 per hour. but he recently received a raise of x dollars per hour

   Pay per hour is 8hr, a raise of x gives 8 + x

Sentence 3: New total wage  = 12(8+x)

Sentence 4: Amount earned last week  =  $126

  New total wage = Amount earned last week

               12(8 + x ) = 126

                 96 + 12x  = 126

                          12x  = 126 - 96

                           12x  = 30

                             x = $2.50

Amount of raise is $2.50

A stretched spring has a length of 12 inches when a weight of 2 lbs is attached to the spring. The same spring has a length of 1
Advocard [28]
The way I figured this one out was saying that if it takes 2lbs to stretch it to 12 inches and 5lbs to stretch to 18 inches that means that 3 additional pounds = 6 inches. Therefore, each additional pound is 2 inches. We know already that with 2 lbs it was 12 inches in length and we can also say that 2 lbs = 4 inches. So subtract 4 from 12 and you end up with the answer of 8 inches.
