Answer: Each bow needs 4.67 yards of ribbon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each roll has 20 yd.

She used 3 + 1/2 rolls, then the total length used will be (3 + 1/2) times the length of each roll, this is:

(3 + 1/2)*20 yd = (6/2 + 1/2)*20yd = (7/2)*20yd = 70 yd.

With tose 70 yards of ribbon, she made 15 bows, then the length of ribbon used in each bow will be equal to the quotient between the total length used and the number of ribbons made with it, this is:

70yd/15 = 4.67 yards

Each bow needs 4.67 yards of ribbon.

8. You are paid a commission plus $5.40 per hour with time and a half overtime
Elanso [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $491.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The pay for the first 8 hours is $5.40 per hour × 8 hours = $43.20. Hours over 8 are paid at 1.5 × $5.40 = $8.10 per hour. There are at least 8 hours every day for the 6-day week. There are hours over 8 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday totaling 7 hours of overtime.

The amount of sales is more than $3000, so 4% will be paid on $3000, and 5% will be paid on the $1115 in excess of $3000.

So, the gross pay is ...

  $43.20 × 6 + 8.10 × 7 = $315.90 . . . . wages

  $3000 × .04 +1115 × .05 = $175.75 . . . commission

  $315.90 +1.75.75 = $491.65 . . . . gross pay for the week

It can be less tedious to let a spreadsheet do the calculations.

What is the solution to the equation t-15=76
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

T = 91

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

T + -15 = 76

Reorder the terms:

-15 + T = 76

Solving

-15 + T = 76

Solving for variable 'T'.

Move all terms containing T to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + T = 76 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + T = 76 + 15

T = 76 + 15

Combine like terms: 76 + 15 = 91

T = 91

Simplifying

T = 91
