Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total net earnings = 80+15(x-8)

If Daisy works 13 hours, she will be paid $155.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Daisy works for x hours a day

She is paid $10 per hour for the first 8 hours she works in a day.

So, pay for the first 8 hours =10\times8=80 dollars

For every extra hour she works, she is paid 1.5 times her hourly wage.

The number of hours worked over 8 hours is given by = x-8

So, pay for the hours worked over 8 hours = 15(x-8) dollars

Total net earnings = 80+15(x-8)

And when x = 13

The pay is : 80+15(13-8)

= 80+15(5)

= 80+75 = 155 dollars

Hence, if Daisy works 13 hours, she will be paid $155.

Answer:

If Daisy works 13 hours, she will be paid $155.

step explanation:

Let Daisy works for χ hours a day

She is paid $10 per hour for the first 8 hours she works in a day.

So, pay for the first 8 hours = 10 \ times 8 = 80 dollars

For every extra hour she works, she is paid 1.5 times her hourly wage.

The number of hours worked over 8 hours is given by = χ-8

So, pay for the hours worked over 8 hours = 15(χ-8) dollars

Total net earnings = 80+15(χ-8)

And when χ = 13

The pay is :  80+15(13-8)

=  80+15(5)

=  80+75 = 155 dollars

Hence, if Daisy works 13 hours, she will be paid $155.
