An inequality can be defined as a mathematical relation that compares two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation based on any of the following arguments:

Less than (<).
Greater than (>).
Less than or equal to (≤).
Greater than or equal to (≥).

Next, we would test the ordered pair with the given inequality to determine a solution as follows:

For ordered pair (4, 4), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(4) + 2(4) < 15

12 + 8 < 15

20 < 15 (False).

For ordered pair (3, 3), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(3) + 2(3) < 15

9 + 6 < 15

15 < 15 (False).

7x - 4y > 9

7(3) - 4(3) > 9

21 - 12 > 9

9 > 9 (False)

For ordered pair (2, 1), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(2) + 2(1) < 15

6 + 2 < 15

8 < 15 (True).

7x - 4y > 9

7(2) - 4(1) > 9

14 - 4 > 9

10 > 9 (True)

For ordered pair (1, 0), we have:

3x + 2y < 15

3(1) + 2(0) < 15

3 + 0 < 15

3 < 15 (True).

7x - 4y > 9

7(1) - 4(0) > 9

7 - 4 > 9

3 > 9 (False)

An employee is paid a salary of \$73,840 per year, plus benefits and overtime (time and a half) on hours worked over 40 per week

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

B. $35.50/hr and \$6,079.38 in total income

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Total regular pay earning for the year = $73,840

Let basic salary = b

Overtime = 1.5b

Regular earning per week :

Regular year earning / number of weeks per year

$73840 / 52 = $1420

Regular hours = 40

Regular earning per week = $1420

Regular earning per hour = $1420 / 40

Regular earning per hour = $35.50

Number of overtime hours :

4 hours + 3.5hours = 7.5hours

Overtime pay per hour = 1.5 * regular earning

Overtime pay per hour = 1.5 * 35.5 = $53.25

Total overtime pay = Overtime pay per hour * Number of overtime hours

Total overtime pay = $53.25 * 7.5

Total overtime pay = 399.375

Total pay for the month :

160 regular hours + 7.5 overtime hours

(160 * 35.5) + $399.375

$5,680 + 399.375 = $6,079.375

= $6,079.38
