Answer:

$8/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We will start by finding how much money she made before spending it. The amount of money she took home added to how much money she spent will give us this. ([tex]12 + 36 = 48[/tex]). This means she made $48 before spending it.

Now we can solve for her wage. Let [tex]x[/tex] be her hourly wage

(the 6 is the number of hours she worked, this multiplied by her wage should give us 48)

[tex]6x = 48\\x = 8[/tex]

This means that she made $8/hour.

That is the answer
