Section 1.9
Question 89
Part (a)
y = 10 + 0.75x
x = 10 + 0.75y
(x - 10)= 0.75y
(x - 10)/(0.75) = y
Let x = number of units produced per hour.
Let y = hourly wage
Is this right?
Part (b)
Let y = 24.25
24.25 = (x - 10)/(0.75)
I need to find x.
(24.25)(0.75) = x - 10
18.1875 = x - 10
18.1875 + 10 = x
28.1875 = x
The problem does not say to round off any decimal number. I will press forward to say that the number of units produced when the hourly wage is $24.25 is 28.
