Question

Job a pays $9.95 per hour, 40 hours per week.

Answer 1

Answer:

Job A pays better.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that job A pays $9.95 per hour, 40 hours per week.  

job B pays $17,500 per year.

We have to find which job is better.

As, there are 52(approx.) weeks in a year

∴ Total hours worked in a year = 52(40)=2080 hours

Now, pay for job A is $9.95 per hour,

$\text{Job A pays per year = }2080\times(\ 9.95)=\ 20696$

Job A pays $20,696 per year

Job B only pays $17,500 per year

which shows Job A pays better.

Answer 2

Job A pays better


there are roughly 52 weeks in a year so multiply that by 40 to get the total hours worked in a year. = 2,080

2,080 hours worked per year multiplied by the hourly pay 9.95 = 20,696

Job A pays $20,696 per year

Job B only pays $17,500
