Answer:
1 - $1770
2 - 25 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Al Johnson is paid $2.95 a page.
A normal job has 600 pages and requires about 225 words per page. Al types at 90 words per minute.
1. About how much will Al receive for his work?
He will receive [tex]2.95\times600=1770[/tex] dollars
2. Estimate how many hours it will take Al to complete the job.
Total number of words will be = [tex]600\times225=135000[/tex]
90 words are typed in 1 minute.
So, 135000 words will be typed in = [tex]\frac{135000}{90}= 1500[/tex] minutes
In hours it will be = [tex]\frac{1500}{60}= 25[/tex] hours.
