construct a mathematical model for the following real-life situations(make a table)

1. you have a summer job that pays P250 for 8 hours of work a day. beyond 8 hours, you are also paid 1.5 time your hourly rate

2. an internet café has a flat rate of P15 for the first hour of playing, surfing, and the like. an additional P5 is charged for every hour in excess afterwards.

The mathematical model representing the scenarios described can be expressed as follows :

  • If n ≤ 8 ; A(n) = 31.25n
  • If n > 8 ; A(n) = 31.25 + 46.875(n - 8)

  • T(n) = 15 + 5(n - 1)

1.)

Amount paid per 8 hours at summer job = 250

Additional hours beyond, 8 hours = 1.5 × hourly rate

Let:

  • hourly rate = p
  • Number of hours worked = n
  • Amount earned as a function of n, A(n)

Hourly rate, p = (250 ÷ 8) = 31.25

Therefore, the hourly rate, p at the summer job = $31.25

Overtime pay = 1.5 × 31.25 = $46.875

Therefore,

If n ≤ 8 ; A(n) = 31.25n

If n > 8 ; A(n) = 31.25 + 46.875(n - 8)

2.)

Let :

  • Number of playing hours = n
  • Total amount charged as a function of n ; T(n)

Therefore,

T(n) = First hour fee + (charge per additional hour × number of additional hours)

T(n) = 15 + 5(n - 1)

Therefore, the models can be used to calculate the total earning and amount charged for any given hour value.
