Diego worked the SAME number of hours for FIVE days at his job at the cheese factory plus an extra 7 hours on Saturday. He worked a total 52-hours last week.

Using H as a variable for the number of hours he worked each normal day, model (create an equation) for Diego’s work week.

How many hours did he work each day for his normal work week?

Answer :

The total hours worked on each day of his normal work week is 7.5 hours.

How many hours did Diego work on each normal day ?

The total hours worked is a function of the total hours worked during the week and the hours worked on Saturday.

The equation that represents the total hours that Diego worked is:

Total hours = total hours worked during the five days + hours worked on Saturday

52 = (5 X H) + 7 + H

52 = 5H + 7 + H

In order to determine the value of H, take the following steps:

Combine similar terms together: 52 - 7 = 5H + H

Add similar terms together: 45 = 6h

Divide both sides of the equation by 6 : H = 45 /6

H = 7.5 hours
