Answer:

raise = $0.76

new wage = $10.26 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

8% in decimal form = 8/100 = 0.08

To find 8% of 9.50:  0.08 x 9.50 = 0.76

Therefore, the housekeeper's raise = $0.76

To calculate the amount she now earns after the raise, add the 8% rise to the initial value:

0.76 + 9.50 = $10.26
