Calculate the pay for the following day of a weekly time card given a wage of $14/hr.

Morning:
In 08:00
Out 12:00
Afternoon:
In 12:45
Out 17:30

pay = $[?]

 $122.50

Step-by-step explanation:

In          Out

8:00    12:00    = 4 hours

12:45    17:30   = 4.75 hours  

          Total        8.75 hours

8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50

Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:

 17:30       →         16:90

- 12:45                - 12:45

                            4: 45

4 hours 45 minutes = = 4.75 hours

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
