Let's re-read the statement and question, and then break it down.
He charges a flat fee of $38, plus $22 per hour.
A flat fee of $38 is only a one-time pay, and will never be paid for again.
This means if after two hours, we only add $38 once overall, never more.
Every hour that goes by, he earns $22 each hour.
Now that we've broken this down, we can make an equation.
Let's do 1 hour.
1(22) + 38 = 22 + 38, = 60.
For 1 hour he earns $60.
Let's do 2 hours.
2(22) + 38 = 44 + 38, = 82.
For 2 hours he earns $82.
Let's do 3 hours.
3(22) + 38 = 66 + 38, = 104.
For 3 hours he earns $104.
Let's do 4 hours.
4(22) + 38 = 88 + 38, = 126.
For 4 hours he earns $126.
This is a pattern.
Now let's do 8 hours, which is the main question, "How much does he make in 8 hours?".
8(22) + 38 = 176 + 38, = 214.
For 8 hours he earns $214.
I hope this helps!
<u><em>You want to leave a 18% tip on a meal that cost $150.</em></u>
<u><em>First, convert the 18% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 18%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "18%" becomes 18% / 100% = 0.18 in terms of a real mathematical number.</em></u>
<u><em>Second, you need to find out what 18% of your $150 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.18 by $150.00, or</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
<u><em>0.18 x $150.00=$27.00.</em></u>
<u><em>So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $27.00.</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
<u><em>This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
<u><em>$150.00 + $27.00 = $177.00. </em></u>

1. A. 550 meters.
this is because 2.5 km = 2500 meters, since there are 1000 meters in one kilometer.
therefore, 2500 - 1950 = 550 meters.
2. B. 126 inches.
this is because there are 12 inches in one foot, so we multiply 12 by 10 since there are 10 full feet. this leaves us with 120. then, we add half a foot, which is 6 inches. therefore, it is 126 :)
Explanation: “The distributive property is where a number or value is distributed into a whole equation. Based on the work below as you can see I “distributed” 5 to (3m+4n) meaning I multiplied 5&3m and 5&4n, when I multiply 5&3 that give me 15, and when I multiply 5&4 that gives me 20. So when finally simplified my new equation is 15m+20n”
Make sure when you is the distributive property that you always add the variables because it will be wrong.
