Answer:

colby

hourly rate =$8.90

overtime rate = time and a half = 1.5

the hourly overtime rate is the product of the overtime rate and the hourly rate.

hourly overtime rate= overtime rate × hourly rate

= 1.5 × $8.90

= $13.35

Cheryl

hourly rate = $7.10

overtime rate = double time = 2

the hourly overtime rate is the product of overtime rate and the hourly rate.

hourly overtime rate = overtime rate × hourly rate

= 2 × $7.10

= $14.20

<h3>Comparison</h3>

we note that the hourly overtime rate of cheryl is higher than the hourly overtime rate of colby, which implies that cheryl earns more for one hour of overtime.

we are also interested in the difference of the hourly overtime rate:

hourly overtime rate colby — hourly overtime rate cheryl

= $14.20 – $13.35

= $0.85

thus cheryl earns $0.85 more for one hour of overtime than colby .

<h3>result</h3>

<h2>cheryl,$0.85</h2>

Fed [463]

Answer:

$\text{B. }26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $\overline{PN}$ and $\overline{PQ}$ are equal, we can set them equal to each other:

$7x+5=10x-4,\\9=3x,\\x=3$

Substitute $x=3$ to solve for $\overline{PQ}$ :

$\overline{PQ}=10(3)-4=\boxed{\text{B. }26}}$

A rectangular swimming pool measures 40 ft by 60 ft and is surrounded by a path of uniform width around the four edges. The peri

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets x = the width of the path the surrounding path will add 2x to the pool dimension,therefore over all dimesion: (2x+40) by (2x+60) the overall perimeter (2x + 40) + 2(2x+60) = 248 Simplify divide by 2, result (2x+40) +(2x+60) = 124

 Combine like terms 2x + 2x +40 +60 =124 

4x + 100 = 124 

4x=124 = 100

4x=24

x=24/4

x= 6ft is the width of the path

check this by finding the perimeter with these values; 2x = 12 ft 

2 ( 12 + 40 ) + 2( 12 +60 ) 

2( 52 + 2(72)

104 + 144 = 248; confirms our solution of x= 6 ft
