I am setting the week hourly rate to x, and the weekend to y.  Here is how the equation is set up:

13x + 14y = $250.90
15x + 8y = $204.70

This is a system of equations, and we can solve it by multiplying the top equation by 4, and the bottom equation by -7.  Now it equals:

52x + 56y = $1003.60
-105x - 56y = -$1432.90

Now we add these two equations together to get:

-53x = -$429.30 --> 53x = $429.30 --> (divide both sides by 53) x = 8.10.  This is how much she makes per hour on a week day.

Now we can plug in our answer for x to find y.  I am going to use the first equation, but you could use either.

$105.30 + 14y = $250.90.  Subtract $105.30 from both sides --> 14y = $145.60 divide by 14 --> y = $10.40

Now we know that she makes $8.10 per hour on the week days, and $10.40 per hour on the weekends.  Subtracting 8.1 from 10.4, we figure out that she makes $2.30 more per hour on the weekends than week days.

HELLO. I NEED HELP ON A HANDFUL OF QUESTIONS. PLEASE HELP. ​
galben [10]

Question 7: $3945

78,900÷100×5= 3,945

or 789,00×0.05= $3,945

Question 8: I think it may be $675.46 ( but I'm not sure)

$1010 is her annual insurance premium so to find one month we need to divide $1010 by 12

$1010÷12= $84.20

also her annual real estate tax is $938 and to find one month we need to divide this by 12 as well.

$938÷12=$78.20

and in order to find out her combined monthly payment we need to add them all together

$513.12+$84.16+$78.16= $675.46

Question 9: is False

Question 10: I don't know

Hope this helps
