Hi.............

Good luck :) ........

Answer 2

$12 per hour

Explanation:

To solve how much did Robin earned per hour you just have to do a simple equation, we know that he worked 9 weeks, and that each week he worked 40 hours, so you equation would look like this:

`Income=(wageperhour)*(hours worked)`

The hours worked is just a math done by multiplying the weeks worked by the hours worked per week that would be:

`Hours worked=Hours worked per week*weeks\\Hours worked=(40 hours)*(9 weeks)\\Hours worked=360 hours`

So now we just put the data into our equation

`Income=(wageperhour)*(hours worked)\\$4320=(wageperhour)*(360)\\wage per hour=4320/360\\ Wage per hour= 12`
