An employee at a factory is paid $9.25 per hour plus an $8.00 bonus for every 20 transformers assembled. Last week an employee worked 36 hours and assembled 380 transformers. How much money did the factory employee actually earn per hour last week rounded to the nearest cent?

-$13.47 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an expression:

The total amount earned by the employee will be equal to the product of the number of hours he worked (36) and the amount paid per hour (9.25) ; plus the product of the amount paid for every 20 transformers assembled (8) and the number of transformers assembled (380)divided by 20 :

9.25 (36) + 8 (380/20) =  

Solving:

333+ 8 (19) =

333+152 = $485

If we divide the result by the number of hours:

485 /36 = $13.47 per hour

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.  

f(x) is the value of the function. b is the value of the function when x equals zero or the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis in the coordinate plane.
