\n" ); document.write( "Shaun earns $\"73.20\" in \"6\" hours at his weekend job. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "$\"73.20%2F6=12.2\" per hour\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Jeff earns $\"55.50\" in \"5+\"hours.
\n" ); document.write( "$\"55.50%2F5=11.1\" per hour\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a)
\n" ); document.write( "Calculate their earning for five different lengths of time.
\n" ); document.write( "for \"1\" hour Shaun earns $\"12.2\"
\n" ); document.write( "for \"t\" hours Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=4\", Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A4=48.8\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=5\", Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A5=61\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=7\", Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A7=85.4\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=8\", Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A8=97.6\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=10\", Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A10=122\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for \"1\" hour Jeff earns $\"11.1\"
\n" ); document.write( "for \"t\" hours Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=4\", Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At=11.1%2A4=44.4\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=5\", Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At=11.1%2A5=55.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=7\", Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At=11.1%2A7=77.7\"
\n" ); document.write( "if \"t=8\", Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At=11.1%2A8=88.8\"

\n" ); document.write( "Who makes more money after an 8-hour shift?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " after an 8-hour shift Shaun earns $\"12.2%2At=12.2%2A8=97.6\"
\n" ); document.write( "after an 8-hour shift Jeff earns $\"11.1%2At=11.1%2A8=88.8\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, Shaun makes more money after an 8-hour shift
