He had $98 (86+12=98) after he worked for 14 hours, so now all we have to do is divide $98 by 14 to figure out how much money he got per hour. I did the math and figured out 98÷14=7, so that means Judah's hourly wage is $7.

Answer:  The required hourly wage of Judah is $7.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Judah worked at the bakery for 14 hours last week.

He spent $12 of his earnings on a cake for his father’s birthday and he was left with $86 after buying the cake.

We are to find the Judah's hourly wage.

Total earning of Judah last week is given by

[tex]E=\$(12+86)=\$98.[/tex]

Now,

Earning of Judah in 14 hours = $98.

Therefore, the earning of Judah in 1 hour will be

[tex]\$\dfrac{98}{14}=$7.[/tex]

Thus, the required hourly wage of Judah is $7.
