Matt gets paid an hourly rate of $12.50 for the first 40 hours he works in a week. after 40 hours , matt gets paid at an overtime rate $15 per hour and receives a $100 bonus for every additional 10 hours that he works after the initial 40 hours. how much will matt get paid this week if he works 55 hours ?

12.50 x 40 = 500; this is his first week pay from $12.50 an hour for 40 hours  

(15 x 55) + 100 = 925; this is the second pay from $15 an hour for 55 hours and an additional $100

Hope this helps! (If not correct me if its wrong xd)

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
