Answer:

Dawn earns $9.75 per hour while Amy earns $10 per hour.  

This information is important in comparing who is actually earning more than the other. Amy is earning<em> $0.25 more than Dawn is earning.</em> Thus, working for an<em> extra 2 hours than Dawn </em>made her earn<em><u> </u></em><em><u>$22.5</u></em><em><u> more than Dawn earned in a week.</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

You can get the <em>hourly work rate </em>of Dawn and Amy by <u>dividing their </u><em><u>total earnings</u></em><u> to the</u><em><u> number of hours they worked</u></em><u>.</u>

  • Dawn = $97.50 ÷ 10 = $9.75
  • Amy = $120 ÷ 12 = $10

You can get the <u><em>difference in hourly rate</em></u> by subtracting Dawn's earning from Amy's earning.

  • $10 - $9.75 = $0.25

You can also get the<u><em> difference in their weekly earnings</em></u> by subtracting Dawn's total weekly earning from Amy's total weekly earning.

  • $120 - $97.50 = $22.5

The diagonals of a rhombus are 12 in. and 16 in. long. The length of a side of the rhombus is 10 in. What is the height of the r
iris [78.8K]
If d₁ and d₂ are the lengths of the diagonals, the area is given by
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
.. A = (1/2)*(12 in)*(16 in)
.. A = 96 in²

If b is the base and h is the height, the area is given by
.. A = b*h
We know the values of A and b, so
.. 96 in² = (10 in)*h
.. (96 in²)/(10 in) = h = 9.6 in

The height is 9.6 in.
