Jose makes $8 an hour plus an additional $240 per week in commission. How
many hours did he work last week if his
paycheck was $528?

36 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hours Jose worked, we can write an equation with the value x as our unknown, for the hours worked.

To construct this equation, we'll list out the values we have to include. The total will equal 528, so we know 528 will be on one side of the equation.

On the other side, we have the hourly rate plus the commission, 240. The rate is 8 dollars per hour. The unknown, or hours worked, is x. So, the rate is 8x. This is added to the weekly commission to equal his weekly paycheck.

8x, the hourly rate, + 240, the commission, = 528, the total paycheck.

The equation is-

8x + 240 = 528

Now we can solve the equation.

First subtract 240 from either side of the equals sign.

8x + 240 - 240 = 528 - 240

Simplify this to get-

8x = 288

Divide 8x by 8.

=

Simplify.

x = 36

Jose worked 36 hours last week.

I hope this helps ^^
