Answer 1

$6(37hrs) + $43 = x... is the solving equation, to solve it first multiply the parenthesis in which you get =  $222.00, then you add the total of tips and you get the final answer          x = $265.00

Answer 2

Answer: The total money earned by Gina in a week is $265

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Total tips earned = $43

Let the number of hours worked be taken as 'x'

And, the total amount of money earned be taken as 'y'

So, the equation for the total amount of money earned will be:

$6x+43=y$

Total number of hours worked in a week = 37 hrs

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(6\times 37)+43=y\\\\y=\ 265$

Hence, the total money earned by Gina in a week is $265
