Answer:

Julio is paid 1.4 times his normal hourly rate for every excess hour he works in a week.

last week he worked 35 hours and got 436.60 dollars.

We need to find an equation so we can be able to solve Julio’s earnings:

=> Let X be the value of Julio’s rate

=> 30 * X + 5 x 1.4x = 436.6

=> 30x + 7x = 436.6

=> 37x = 436.6

=> 37x / 37 = 436.6 / 37

=> x = 11.8

Thus the original rate of Julio is 11.8 dollars

=> 1.4 x 11.8 = 16.52 dollars, the rate of Julio with added rate

=> 30 x 11.8  + 5 x 16.52

=> 354 + 82.6

=> 436.6
