Can someone help me with this? I'll give Medal...

Alissa is a supervisor on a construction site and works 8 hours each day. If she works on the weekend, she makes time and a half, which is 1 1/2 times as much as her regular hourly wage.

Last week, Alissa worked Monday through Friday and an extra 8-hour shift on Saturday.

All together, she earned $1500.

Write an equation to determine Alissa's regular hourly wage, r. Do not solve the equation for r.
