Question

1. Mrs. Rodger got a weekly raise of $145. If she gets paid every other week, write an integer describing how the raise will affect her paycheck.​

Answer 1

given:

weekly raise= $145

to find:

an integer describing how the raise will affect her paycheck.

solution:

Let the 1st paycheck be x (integer).

Mrs. Rodger got a weekly raise of $ 145.

So after completing the 1st week she will get $ (x+145).

Similarly after completing the 2nd week she will get $ (x + 145) + $ 145.

= $ (x + 145 + 145)

= $ (x + 290)

therefore, in this way end of every week her salary will increase by $ 145.
