Assume that john smith is a salesperson employed by mccrackin company. smith's regular rate of pay is $36 per hour, and any hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week are paid at 1½ times the regular rate. smith worked 42 hours for the week ended october 27. what are his total earnings for the week?

$1548

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the normal rate of payment is $36 per hour

and with an excess of 40 hours the pay will be 1 and a half the normal rate(1.5)

And John works for 42hours

For first we know John worked for an excess of 2 hours

And calculating his pay for 40hours of the normal rate that week, we multiply $36 by 40 which will give $1440

Then the extra 2 hours, the new pay rate will be $36 multiplied by 1.5 which will give $54 per hour

And for the extra 2 hours, John will get extra $54 multiplied by 2 which will give $108

Adding both $1440 and $108, we will get $1548

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.

a = 3.14

b = 18

c = 18/5 or 3.6 or 3 3/5
