Sonya, who is paid time and a half for hours worked in excess of 40 hours, had gross weekly wages of $345 for 44 hours worked. What is her regular hourly rate?

$7.5/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Sonya is paid time and half for hours worked in excess of 40 hours

She has a gross weekly wages of $345 for 44 hours

Let y represent sonya's hourly rate

Since she is paid one and half then it can be represented as 1.5y

Sonya is suppose to work for a period of 40 hours, this means that she has 4 overtime hours

Therefore Sonya regular hourly rate can be calculated as follows

40y + 4(1.5y) = 345

40y + 6y = 345

46y= 345

y = 345/46

y= 7.5

Hence Sonya's regular hourly rate is $7.5/hour

the answer is c. 23/3

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4
