John j. parker worked 44 hours this week. he gets time-and-a-half for any hours beyond 40. how many regular pay hours did john work? how many hours beyond 40 did he work? using method 2, what are john's adjusted overtime hours

He worked 40 regular hours.

He 4 hours beyond 40.

He worked 40 + 4(1.5) = 40 + 6 = 46 adjusted hours

Step-by-step explanation:

John worked 44 hours and a regular work week is 40 hours. This means John worked 40 regular hours plus 4 hours over time. He receives time and a half or 1.5 for each hour over 40.

So 40 + 4(1.5) = 40+6=46 adjusted hours.

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
