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 equation:

Total earnings = 9.25 (h) + 8 (t/20)

Where h is the number of hours and t is the number of transformers.

Since he worked for 36 hours and assembled 380 transformers:

Total earnings = 9.25 (36) + 8 (380/20)

Total earnings = 333+152 = $485

Finally, to find how much he earned per hours, we simply have to divide the result by the number of hours worked (36):

485/36 = $13.47 per hour.
