=12.50 - 5 = 7.5 is markup
12) LCM of 2 & 12 is 12
Answer: (F)
13) (25 x 8) x 4
Step 1: Order of operations do parenthesis first: (25 x 8) = 200
Step 2: Multiply: 200 x 4 = 800
Answer: 800
14) I would plug each value in to see which works
D) 10x + 5y = 10(6) + 5(9) = 60 + 45 = 105
Answer is (D)
15) 2 x 12 - 8 (divided by) 2^2
Exponent first: 2 x 12 - 8 divided by 4
Multiplication/ Division: 2 x 12 = 24 and -8 divided by 4 = -2
Add/Subtract: 24 - 2 = 22
Answer: (I)
Answer:
$7.62 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, Heather gets a raise every 3 months, in 2 years, she will get a raise 8 times (2years = 24 months, 24 divided by 3 is 8).
Now it becomes a compound growth problem. We can use the formula shown below to solve these type of problems.

Where,
- F is the future value (what we want to find)
- P is the present rate ($6.5)
- r is the rate of growth, in decimal (2% growth means 0.02)
- t is the time frame, number of times compounding occurs (for our case we have figured it to be 8)
<u>Now plugging in all the info, we get the value of F:</u>

Thus, after 2 years, Heather's hourly rate will be $7.62
I think the answer is 2( 4x+3)(x-2)
