Veronika [31]

Step-by-step explanation + Answer:

x = 1st job

y = 2nd job

x + y = 22......x = 22 - y

7x + 8.25y = 171.50

7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50

154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50

-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154

1.25y = 17.50

y = 17.50 / 1.25

y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job

x + y = 22

x + 14 = 22

x = 22 - 14

x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job
