Andrew is paid $4 per hour for the first 30 hours he works each week. He makes $5 per hour for each hour he works over 30 hours per week. In other words, total wages = fixed wages for 30 hours + additional wages at $5 per hour. Apply function notation to answer the following questions about Andrew’s wages. Part A Write a function that gives Andrew’s total wages when he works more than 30 hours. Use the variables w for wages and h for hours.

w = 120 + 5(h - 30) <== ur equation....where w = total wages earned and h = number of hrs worked
