Question

Anastasia uses the equation p = 0.7(rh + b) to estimate the amount of take-home pay, p, for h hours worked at a rate of r dollars per hour and any bonus received, b.

What is an equivalent equation solved for h?

h = (– b)÷ r
h = – b ÷ r
h = ÷ r – b
h = ÷ r

Answer 1

a

Explanation:

Answer 2

For the answer to the question above, first we must enlist the given

p = take home pay
r = rate of dollars per hour
h = number of hours worked
b = bonus

So now we can find h and let us start with the formula.

p = 0.7(rh + b)

p = 0.7*r*h + 0.7b

p - 0.7b = 0.7rh

So the answer for this problem is

h = (p-0.7b)/0.7r
