instruments produced consistent with hour = x hourly salary = y y= 0.55x + 7 If worker produces 13 instruments consistent with hour then it follows that x=13 meaning the hourly fee given as y is: y= 0.fifty 5 (13) +7 y= 7.15 + 7 y= 14.15 The hourly fee of the worker is $14.15 consistent with hour Kuddos :)

Substitute 12 for x and solve:
y=0.50*12+7
y=6+7
y=13
So the employee makes $13.00 per hour
