Question

Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression represents her gross pay each day? 5h + 65h + 87h + 67h + 8 dollars

Answer 1

The expression which represents her gross pay each day is:

`5h+8`

Explanation:

It is given that:

The gross pay of Harriet at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars.

Now, we are asked to calculate her gross pay each day.

We know that gross pay each day is the ratio of the gross pay in the week to the number of days in the week.

Since, there are 7 days in a week.

Hence, gross pay per day is:

`=((35h+56))/(7)\\\\\\=(35h)/(7)+(56)/(7)\\\\=5h+8`
