Allison earns $14 an hour plus $20 an hour for every hour of overtime. overtime hours are any hours more than 35 hours for the week. part a: create an equation that shows the amount of money earned, e, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime. (3 points) part b: create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, t, for working y hours of overtime. hint: remember to include in the equation the amount earned from working 35 hours. (3 points) part c: allison earned $610 in 1 week. how many hours (regular plus overtime) did she work? show your work. (4 points)

Part a) Create an equation that shows the amount of money earned, E, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime

Let

E-------> the amount of money earned

x------> number of hours worked

we know that

For

therefore

the answer part a) is

Part b) Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, T, for working y hours of overtime

Let

T-------> the amount of money earned

y------> number of hours of overtime

we know that

therefore

the answer part b) is

Part c) Allison earned $610 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did she work?

we know that

Divide by  ----> to obtain the hours of overtime

So

Allison works

therefore

the answer part c) is

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

when functions are first introduced, you will probably have some simplistic "functions" and relations to deal with, usually being just sets of points. these won't be terribly useful or interesting functions and relations, but your text wants you to get the idea of what the domain and range of a function are. small sets of points are generally the simplest sorts of relations, so your book starts with those.

step-by-step explanation:

state the domain and range of the following relation. is the relation a function?

{(2, –3), (4, 6), (3, –1), (6, 6), (2, 3)}

the above list of points, being a relationship between certain x's and certain y's, is a relation. the domain is all the x-values, and the range is all the y-values. to give the domain and the range, i just list the values without duplication:

domain: {2, 3, 4, 6}

range: {–3, –1, 3, 6}

(it is customary to list these values in numerical order, but it is not required. sets are called "unordered lists", so you can list the numbers in any order you feel like. just don't duplicate: technically, repetitions are okay in sets, but most instructors would count off for this.)

while the given set does indeed represent a relation (because x's and y's are being related to each other), the set they gave me contains two points with the same x-value: (2, –3) and (2, 3). since x = 2 gives me two possible destinations (that is, two possible y-values), then this relation is not a function.

note that all i had to do to check whether the relation was a function was to look for duplicate x-values. if you find any duplicate x-values, then the different y-values mean that you do not have a function. remember: for a relation to be a function, each x-value has to go to one, and only one, y-value.

state the domain and range of the following relation. is the relation a function?

{(–3, 5), (–2, 5), (–1, 5), (0, 5), (1, 5), (2, 5)}

i'll just list the x-values for the domain and the y-values for the range:
