Answer:

w+2,312=2,490

w= 178 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

W—-^ the amount of weight Bernard lost in pounds

We know that

The amount of weight Bernard lost plus the weight of this week must be equal to the weight of the last week

So…

The linear equation that represents this situation is

w=2,312=2,490

solve for w

Subtract 2,490 - 2,312 = 178lbs

Answer:

Earnings = $1960

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete; however the missing part of the question asks his total earnings if he worked for 48 hours in a week

First, we need to determine the extra hour worked

Regular Hour = 40

Extra Hour = 48 - 40

Extra Hour = 8

Total Earnings is then calculated as follows:

Earnings = Regular Hours * Regular Charges + Extra Hours * Extra Charges

Earnings = 40 * 35 + 8 * Extra Charges

Since extra charges is twice regular charges, we have:

Earnings = 40 * 35 + 8 * 35 * 2

Earnings = 1400 + 560

Earnings = $1960
