Andrew makes $6 an hour plus $9 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 40 hours for the week. Part A: Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, W, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime.

Part B: Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, S, for working y hours of overtime. Hint: Remember to include in the equation the amount earned from working 40 hours.

Part C: Andrew earned $330 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did he work? Show your work.

Part A: W = 6x

Part B: Since without overtime it is 6 $ per hour and you need to make 40 hours

you would multiply 6 *40 = 240

So S = 240 + 9y

Part C: Substitute

Since Andrew earned 330 you would substitute it for S

330 = 240 + 9y <--- solve for y

330  ( - 240 ) = 240 ( - 240 ) 9y  < subtract 240 from each side

90 = 9y

90 / 9 = 9y / 9 < divide by 9

10 =y   Andrew worked 10 hours for overtime  

Check  

330 = 240 + 9(10)

330 = 240 + 90

330 = 330 <-- your answer is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
