Answer:
Kyle's average hourly earnings for the job is $17.18
Explanation:
Given:
Cost for mowing lawn = $22.00
cost for weed eating = $5.00
cost for edging = $5.00
cost for leaf blowing = $5.00
cost for plating one flower bed = $10.00
To find:
Average hourly earnings for the job = ?
Solution:
Lets first find the total amount earned
Total amount earned = Cost for mowing lawn + cost for weed eating +cost for edging +cost for leaf blowing + 2(cost for plating one flower bed)
Total amount earned = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +2(10.00)
Total amount earned = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +20.00
Total amount earned = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +20.00
Total amount earned = 57.00
Kyle's average hourly earnings for the job = [tex]\frac{ \text{ Total amount earned}}{\text{time taken to complete the work}}[/tex]
=>[tex]\frac{57.00}{3.2}[/tex]
=> 17.18
