Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
5x%2B7=6x Start with the given equation.
5x=6x-7 Subtract 7 from both sides.
5x-6x=-7 Subtract 6x from both sides.
-x=-7 Combine like terms on the left side.
Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x.
x=7 Reduce.
Answer:
Sue is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
because of the simple fact that the numbers are increasing and not decreasing so why would they do 8n-6
Hrs worked = 9.25 + 8.75 + 9 + 8.25 + 9 = 44.25 hrs. (44.25 - 40 = 4.25 hrs overtime)
<span>40 hrs * $9.32 = $372.80 (Straight time) </span>
<span>$9.32 * 1.5 = $13.98 (Overtime rate) </span>
<span>4.25 (Overtime hrs.) x $13.98 (Overtime rate) = $59.42 (Overtime pay) </span>
<span>$372.80 + $59.42 = $432.22 (Total gross pay)</span>
I'm not sure if that's the correct method of finding that (it could be, I was just never shown that kind of method). What I did was multiply everything out, that way you have two numbers vs two equations. Then add those two numbers and turn that into scientific notation.
