Question 9 • HCISD-Mathematical Models with Applications B-CR SUMMER

Isabella worked 50 hours over the past two weeks, and she gets paid by the hour. During the first week of the two-week span, she worked 30 hours and got paid $285.00. How much did she get paid during the second week of the two-week span?

Answer
A
$114.00
B
$190.00
C
$427.50
D
$475.50

Explanation

Isabella’s hourly pay is $285 ÷ 30 = $9.50 per hour. She worked 50 − 30 = 20 hours during the second week, so she earned 20 × $9.50 = $190.00, which is choice B, $190.00.
