Question 154907: Can you help me with this words problem please? its from the worksheet from chapter 1.3
24. You need to earn $475 per week to afford the new car you want to purchase. Your work week is 45 hours. You get 1.5 times the regular hourly rate for overtime(anything over 40 hours). How much does your hourly rate need to be? Answer by oscargut(2103) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x the rate per hour
then 40x+(45-5)1.5x=475
then 47.5x=475
then x=10
rate is $10 per hour
