Answer:
y = mx + b
where,
y = earning
m = slope or earning per hour = $24
x = total number of hours
b = y intercept or initial earning upon visit = $45
Hence,
y = 24x + 45
Since we are working at two separate work sites, therefore each site we must earn 810/2 = 405
So when y = 405:
405 = 24x + 45
x = 15 hours
So you must work 15 hours at each site.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
7.56 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
So my equation will be:
$45 + $24h
If we need to find out how many hours you have to work in order to earn $117 working at two separate work sites, the equation would look like this:
45 + 25h ÷ 2 = 117.
First we need to multiply both sides of th equation by 2.
[tex]\frac{2\left(45+25h\right)}{2}=117\cdot \:2[/tex]
Then, I had to simplify.
[tex]5+25h=234[/tex]
After simplifying, it was about time to subtract 45 from both sides of the equation.
[tex]45+25h-45=234-45[/tex]
I had to simplify again, then divide both sides by 25.
[tex]25h=189[/tex]
[tex]\frac{25h}{25}=\frac{189}{25}[/tex]
Again, I have to simplify for a final time to get the answer of..
[tex]h=\frac{189}{25}[/tex]
In decimal form, thats equal to 7.56 hours.
h = 7.56.
