Matt gets paid an hourly rate of $12.50 for the first 40 hours he works in a week. after 40 hours , matt gets paid at an overtime rate $15 per hour and receives a $100 bonus for every additional 10 hours that he works after the initial 40 hours. how much will matt get paid this week if he works 55 hours ?

12.50 x 40 = 500; this is his first week pay from $12.50 an hour for 40 hours  

(15 x 55) + 100 = 925; this is the second pay from $15 an hour for 55 hours and an additional $100

Hope this helps! (If not correct me if its wrong xd)

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

step-by-step explanation:

for exempl this   system of equations   y = x - 3

                                                                y = 2x - 5

look   the line : y = x -3     ( red)

                            the line : y = 2x -5 ( bleus)
