Let $\"+r+\"$ = his normal hourly rate
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+30r+%2B+%28+1.4r+%29%2A%28+35+-+30+%29+=+436.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+30r+%2B+1.4r%2A5+=+436.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+30r+%2B+7r+=+436.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+37r+=+436.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+r+=+11.8+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "His normal hourly rate is $11.80 / hr
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
