Algebra.Com's Answer #738180 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If he works 40 hours a week it is 2080 hours a year. That would be 2080*9 +$55*52 or $21580. \n" ); document.write( "If the formula is 52(9n+55) and n=40, this is 52(415)=$21580 \n" ); document.write( "Likely, n had to be exactly defined. \n" ); document.write( "Or, one could have dealt with the bonus separately at $2860. \n" ); document.write( "Then the expression would have been amount=52n+2860, where n is the number of hours worked per week. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
