Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7.95h + 7.95(18) = 238.50

7.95h + 143.10 = 238.50

7.95h = 238.50 - 143.10

7.95h = 95.40

h = 95.40 / 7.95

h = 12 <==== he would need to work 12 hrs as a host

Answer 2

Answer:

18 * 7.95 = $143.10

238.50 - 143.10 = 95.40

95.40/7.95 = 12

12 hours
