Answer:
x >4 or x < -12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
An absolute value has 2 solutions, a positive and a negative. Remember to flip the inequality for the negative solution
|5x-4|>16
5x-4 > 16 5x-4 < -16
Add 4 to each side
5x-4 +4> 16+4 or 5x-4+4 < -16+4
5x > 20 or 5x < -12
Divide each side by 5
5x/5 > 20/5 or 5x/5 < -12/5
x >4 or x < -12/5

Joe has earned $702 in total
To work through this problem, we can first calculate how much money Joe earned at regular pay:
40 (number of hours) x 13.5 (pay rate) = 540 (in dollars)
Now, before we figure out how much he earned working overtime, we must calculate his overtime pay rate (time and a half). We do this by multiplying his normal pay rate by 1.5:
13.5 x 1.5 = 20.25 ($/hr.)
Now we can calculate his overtime total:
8 (number of hours) x 20.25 (overtime pay rate) = 162 (in dollars)
So, to find the total amount of money Joe earned, we have to add the two totals together:
540 + 162 = 702
Thus, Joe has earned $702 in total
Hope this helped!
