Answer:

$11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = pay of regular hour

y = time-and-half rate hour pay

40x + 8y = 585

y = 1.5x

40x + 8(1.5x) = 585

40x + 12x = 585

52x = 585

52x/52 = 585/52

x = 11.25

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y + 7 = –y plus 7 equals negative StartFraction 2 Ov

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Negative Start Fraction 2 Over 3 End Fraction x minus 11

$f(x)=-\frac{2}{3}x-11$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y+7=-\frac{2}{3}(x+6)$

Convert to slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

Solve for y

That means -----> Isolate the variable y

Distribute in the right side

$y+7=-\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}(6)$

$y+7=-\frac{2}{3}x-4$

subtract 7 both sides

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x-4-7$

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x-11$

Convert to function notation

Let

f(x)=y

$f(x)=-\frac{2}{3}x-11$

therefore

The linear function is
