Marsha earn $25 per hour up to 36 hours; after this, she is paid double time. In one particular week she earned $1550.00 .how many hours did she worked overtime

Marta worked 13 hours overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

1): You do 25 x 36 to get the amount of money she can make before she starts to make double.

36 x 25 = 900

2): Minus $900 from $1550

$1550 - $900 = $650

3): Divide $650 by $50

$650 / $50 = 13 hours worked overtime

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
