"If you switch to the late shift, you will receive a 10% wage increase." Great! I make $12.00 per hour now, and that extra 10% would put me at __________ per hour."

Respuesta :

Answer:

$13.20/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

A 10% wage increase would amount to 0.10($12) = $1.20.  Adding this increase to the starting rate $12/hr results in $13.20/ hr.

A faster way in which to do this is shown below:

Wages after a 10% increase = (1.10)($12/hr) = $13.20/hr

"You will get a 10% pay boost if you go to the late shift, an additional 10% would raise it to $13.20 per hour.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A fraction of 100 can be used to express the ratio.

Given condition;

The base pay is $12.00 per hour If you switch to the late shift, you will receive a 10% wage increase.

Let the increased wage per hour is,x taken as;

10 % of $12.00 = x

x = $1.20

The wage obtained after the increased wage will be;

x + base pay/hour  = increased wage/hour

$1.20 + $12.00 = $13.20

The extra 10% would put me at $13.20 per hour."

Hence  $13.20 is the corect answer.
