A two-day environmental clean up started at 9AM on the first day. The number of workers fluctuated as shown in the following figure. Suppose that the workers were paid 17 dollars per hour for work during the time period 9 am to 5 pm and were paid 25.5 dollars per hour for work during the rest of the day. What would the total personnel costs of the clean up have been under these conditions? total cost = dollars
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
