How do you calculate earnings for overtime work?

Back

To calculate earnings for overtime work, multiply the regular hourly wage by 1.5 for each hour over 40 hours. For example, if Tom earns $7.00 per hour and works 49 hours, his earnings are: 40 hours at $7.00 + 9 hours at $10.50 (time and a half). Total = $280 + $94.50 = $374.50.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in similar positions at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the lines are parallel, corresponding angles are congruent.

Front

What is the formula for calculating total earnings with overtime?

Back

Total earnings = (Regular hours x Regular rate) + (Overtime hours x Overtime rate). Overtime rate is typically 1.5 times the regular rate.

Front

What is the definition of parallel lines?

Back

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that never meet; they are always the same distance apart and have the same slope.

Front

What is the relationship between angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal?

Back

When a transversal crosses parallel lines, several pairs of angles are formed, including corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and same-side interior angles, which have specific relationships (congruent or supplementary).
