(FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!) A student earned $2500.75 at his summer job making $12.50 per hour. Let h represent the number of hours the student worked. Which of the following equations could be used to determine how many hours the student worked at his summer job? (answer choices and question is below)

Answer 1

Answer:

$12.50 \space\ h = 2500.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know from the question that the student earned $12.50 per hour.

Using this information, we can say that if the student worked for h hours, they would make a total of 12.50 × h dollars.

We also know that the total money they earned is $2500.75.

∴ Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

$\boxed {12.50 \times h = 2500.75}$

From here, if we want to, we can find the number of hours worked by simply making h the subject of the equation and evaluating:

h = $\frac{2500.75}{12.50}$

  = 200.6 hours

Answer 2
