Answer by addingup(3677)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a) She makes per month: 935 + 10.70x where x is the number of part-time hours
b) you have to do this yourself. You can set up your spreadsheet just like the formula. To make 1000:
935 + 10.70x = 1000
10.70x = 65
x = 6.1 hours of part time
.
... the formula for c is the same, you have to work it like this:
.
c) 4 weeks in a month. How many o/t hours
935 + 10.70x = 1300 solve for x:
10.70x = 365
x = 34.1 hours
She is going to do this over 4 weeks, so:
34.1/4 = 8.5 hours per week of overtime
