Question

if you are paid an hourly wage of $9.00,determine an equation for finding your weekly gross pay (p) for t hours. Specify an amount between 25 and 40 hours worked for 1 week and determine your gross pay for that week.

Answer 1

The equation is 9t = p. Multiply 9 by the number of hours and you will get your gross pay.

If you work 30 hours a week 9(30)=p then your gross pay would be 270, because you worked 30 hours and got payed 9 dollars for each hour.
