If Bob produces 36 or fewer items in a week, he is paid X dollars per item. If Bob produces more than 36 items in a week, he is paid X dollars per item for the first 36 items and 3/2 times that amount for each additional item. How many items did Bob produce last week?
(1) Last week Bob was paid total of $480 for the items that he produced that week.
(2) This week Bob produced 2 items more than last week and was paid a total of $510 for the items that he produced this week.
The OA is E.
Let x be price per item and Y be total no of items produced
St 1- 36x + (y-36)* (1.5x)=480
St 2- 36x + (y+2-36)* (1.5x)= 510
Solving the 2 equations gives u X=10 and Y=32 as the unique answer. So according to me, the answer should be C. Please let me know if I have made any mistake because this isn't the OA. Thanks!
