Question

If the 3 employees are paid an additional $4/hour for any extra hours they work, they will be motivated to maintain their production rate past the 4th hour, and add one extra pizza due to not making any breadsticks. In this case, the pizza parlor would need to be open for a total of _____ hours to meet the new demand.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "16 hours"

Explanation:

The 3 workers were paid an extra fee.

$\frac{\ 4}{hour} \\\\3 \times 4= 12 \ productivity$

Their output rate will be sustained after the $4^{th}$hour,

$= 12 + 4 \\\\= 16 \ hours$
