A labourer is paid Rs per hr for an 8- hr day and1/2 times the rate for
each hour in excess of 8 hrs in a
sigle day the received
Rs.80 for a single days work, how
long did he work on that day?

Complete question is;

A labourer is paid rs. 8 per hour for an 8 hour day and ½ times that rate for each hour in excess of 8 hours in a single day. if the labourer received rs. 80 for a single day's work, how long did he work on that day?

Total working time for the day = 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Money paid to the labourer for initial 8 hrs of work = 8 × 8 = rs. 64.

Now, we are told that he receives rs. 80 in total for that day. And that he receives ½ times the initial rate for each extra hour after the initial 8 hour period.

Thus;

½ × 8 × y = (80 - 64)

Where y is the duration of extra hours.

So;

4y = 16

y = 16/4 hours

y = 4 hours

Now, since extra hours = 4 hours and normal working hours = 8 hours.

Then, total working time for that day = 8 + 4 = 12 hours

where are the options?

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
