if an employee earns $7.00 an hour for the first 35 hours worked in a week, then he earned {{{35*7.00=245.00}}}

{{{245.00}}}- that is a constant 

 and if get ${{{10.50}}} for any hours {{{x}}} over {{{35}}} one weeks paycheck (before deductions) 

${{{10.50x}}}- that is a overtime

if  one weeks paycheck was ${{{308.00}}}, then

{{{y=10.50x+245.00}}}

{{{308.00=10.50x+245.00}}}

{{{308.00-245.00=10.50x}}}

{{{63.00=10.50x}}}

{{{63.00/10.50=x}}}

{{{6=x}}}...the employee work overtime

so, {{{35+6=41}}}  hours that the employee work
