You are paid 1.5 times your normal hourly rate for each hour you work over 30 hours in a week. You work 34 hours this week and earn $573.84. What is your normal hourly rate?

Respuesta :

Answer: $15.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r be your rate you get paid per hour normally. Let's set up this equation.

(30 * r) + 4(1.5 * r) = 573.83

30r + 6r = 573.83

36r = 573.83

r = 15.94 (rounded)

You get paid $15.94 hourly.
