Question

g precalc Linda works 30 hours per week between two part-time jobs: When she works as a waitress she receives $11.75 per hour and when she works as a math tutor she received $ 17.5 0 per hour. Since she has only 30 hours each week that she can work, the more hours she spends at one job, the fewer number of hours she can work at the second job. If Linda worked a total of 30 hours last week and she worked 9 of these hours as a waitress, how much money did she make last week working at both jobs

Answer 1

Answer:

She made $105.75 working as a waitress

She made $367.50 working as a maths tutor

Step-by-step explanation:

Linda worked a total of 30 hours last week and she worked 9 of these hours as a waitress.

Hence, the number of hours worked as a maths tutor =

30 - 9

= 21 hours

When she works as a waitress she receives $11.75 per hour

Hence, $11.75 × 9 hours

= $105.75

Hence, she made $105.75 working as a waitress

When she works as a math tutor she received $ 17.50 per hour.

$17.50 × 21 hours

$367.50

Hence, she made $367.50 working as a waitress
