-Your pay P for h hours if you are paid $9 for the first two hours and $32 for each additional hour and you work for more than two hours.
A) $P = 9 + 32 ( h - 2 )$
B) $P = 9 + 32 ( \mathrm {~h} - 1 )$
C) $\mathrm { P } = 18 + 32 \mathrm {~h}$
D) $P = 18 + 32 ( h - 2 )$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If you work for more than two hours, you get paid $9 for the first two hours and $32 for each additional hour. So, the total pay P for h hours is:P = 9 + 32 ( h - 2 )

Write an Equation Relating the Variables in the Situation Described P=9+32(h−2)P = 9 + 32 ( h - 2 )P=9+32(h−2)

Write an Equation Relating the Variables in the Situation Described $P = 9 + 32 ( h - 2 )$
