last week Coughy worked 4 hours more than Achewy. she also worked twice as many hourse as Pokey. altogether, they earned $252. if couphy earns $6.50 per hour, Achewy earns $9 per hour, and Pokey earns $5 per hour, find the number of hours that each worked.

Achewy: X hrs. @ $9.00/hr.

Coughy: (x+4) hrs. @ $6.50/hr
Pokey:(x+4)/2 hrs. @ $5.00 hr.

9x + 6.5(x+4) + 5(x+4)/2 = 252.
Multiply both sides by 2 and solve for x.

you work 40 hours a week and earn $d an hour. You get a raise of $3 dollars an hour plus a #13 bonus the first week. How much did you earn the first week. Write and simplify the expression

To solve this problem, let's denote the number of hours Achewy worked as "x."

According to the problem, Coughy worked 4 hours more than Achewy, so Coughy worked for x + 4 hours.

The problem also tells us that Coughy worked twice as many hours as Pokey, so Coughy worked for 2y hours, where y represents the number of hours Pokey worked.

To find the total earning of each person, we multiply their respective hourly rates by the number of hours they worked. We can set up the equation as follows:

6.50(x + 4) + 9x + 5(2y) = 252

Now, let's solve the equation step by step.

6.50x + 26 + 9x + 10y = 252

Combining like terms:

15.5x + 10y + 26 = 252

15.5x + 10y = 226

Since the objective is to find the number of hours each person worked, we have two unknowns, x and y. We cannot solve this equation with two unknowns. However, we can use the information that Coughy worked twice as many hours as Pokey.

Let's say that Pokey worked y hours, then Coughy worked 2y hours, and Achewy worked x hours.

Now, let's substitute the values back into the equation:

15.5x + 10(2y) = 226

15.5x + 20y = 226

Now, we can continue solving the equation. However, since we have two unknowns and only one equation, there are multiple possible values for x and y that satisfy the equation. Therefore, we cannot determine the exact number of hours each person worked based on the given information.
