Answer:

(a) Equations for both

$y = 500 + 12x$ --- lifeguard

$y = 15x$ --- camp counselor

(b) Total pay for 5 days

Lifeguard pays $800

Camp counselor pays $375

(c) Which pays more

Lifeguard job pays more

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

$x \to hours$

$y \to total\ pay$

Given

Lifeguard job

$Signing\ bonus = \$500$

$Rate = \$12/hr$

Camp counselor job

$Signing\ bonus =\$0$

$Rate = \$15/hr$

Solving (a): The equation for both

The total pay for each job is calculated as:

Total Pay = Signing Bonus + Rate * Hours

So, we have:

Lifeguard

$y = 500 + 12*x$

$y = 500 + 12x$

Camp counselor

$y = 0 + 15 * x$

$y = 15x$

Solving (b): Total pay for 5 days

First, we calculate the total hours worked in 5 days

$x = 5hrs/day * 5days$

$x = 25hrs$

So, the pay for each is:

$y = 500 + 12x$

$y =500 + 12*25$

$y =800$ --- Lifeguard

$y = 15x$

$y = 15 * 25$

$y = 375$ --- camp counselor

Solving (c): Which job pays more

By comparing the solution in (b)

$800 > 375$

<em>Hence, lifeguard job pays more</em>
