To solve this problem you must divide the total salary by the total hours to figure out how much is earned each hour
$48/6 hours = $8 per hour
$67.50/9 hours = $7.50 per hour
Mrs. Carson pays Kristen the better salary by $0.50 an hour.
Answer:
Area = 32feet²
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangule = 2(length+width)
Then:
g = 2w Eq. 1
2(g+w) = 24 Eq. 2
g = length
w = width
From Eq. 2:
(2*g + 2*w) = 24
2g + 2w = 24
2w = 24 - 2g Eq. 3
Matching Eq. 1 and Eq. 3
g = 24 - 2g
g + 2g = 24
3g = 24
g = 24/3
g = 8 feet
From Eq. 1
g = 2w
8 = 2w
8/2 = w
w = 4 feet
Check:
From Eq. 2
2(g+w) = 24
2(8+4) = 24
2*12 = 24
Answer:
Area of a rexctangle = length * width
Then:
Area = 8feet * 4feet
Area = 32feet²
