Bob gets rent assistance because he's low-income. If he gets a raise of $0.50/hour and works 40 hours a week, how much more will he actually earn a week if his housing benefit is reduced by $60/month?
First find the total increase in Bob's earnings: $0.50/hour * 40 hours/week = $<T>multiply(0.5, 40)=20.0/week
Then find the weekly decrease in Bob's housing assistance: $60/month / 4 weeks/month = $<T>divide(60, 4)=15.0/week
Then subtract the lost assistance from the increased wages to find Bob's net increase in money: $20/week - $15/week = $<T>subtract(20, 15)=5/week
