Okay. so, to find the answer for this, you should set the equation as 10.25x = 8,425. "x" equals the number of hours. What you should do is divide each side by 10.25 to isolate the "x". When you do that 8,425/10.25, you get 821.951 and other numbers or 822 hours when rounded to the nearest whole number. x is approximately 822. You would have to work about 822 hours to earn $8,425.

Step-by-step explanation:
There's a calculated explanation below. I hope this helps!
3:1 , 4*3=12, 5*1=5
Ratio is 3:1
(y^2-y-12)/(y^2-2y-15) factor both the numerator and denominator...
(y^2-4y+3y-12)/(y^2-5y+3y-15)
(y(y-4)+3(y-4))/(y(y-5)+3(y-5))
((y-4)(y+3))/((y-5)(y+3)) so the (y+3) terms cancel leaving
(y-4)/(y-5)
