For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: rate of payment per hour
We write now the inequality that models the problem:
[tex]38x\ \textgreater \ 228
[/tex]
From here, we clear x:
[tex]x\ \textgreater \ 228/38
[/tex]
[tex]x\ \textgreater \ 6[/tex]
Answer:
his hourly rate of pay was last than $ 6 per hour
