Given:

Alan salary P (in dollars) when he works h hours is represented by the equation

[tex]P=12.50h[/tex]

To find:

The earning per hour.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]P=12.50h[/tex]

Here, P is total salary and h is number of hours he works.

[tex]\text{Earning per hour}= \dfrac{\text{Total salary}}{\text{Number of hours}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Earning per hour}= \dfrac{12.50h}{h}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Earning per hour}=12.50[/tex]

Therefore, the earning per hour is $12.50.
