Question

Shannon earned $12.75 per hour plus an additional $100 in tips waiting tables on Saturday evening. She earned $235 in all. To the nearest hour, what is the least number of hours Shannon would have to work to earn this much money?

Answer 1

Answer:

The least number of hours that she would have to work is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make the equation be "12.75x +100=235". Then, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation. You would get

"12.75x= 135". Then, divide both sides of the equation by 12. 75x, and the equation turns out to say, "x=10.59".
