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.

\bf \cfrac{dx}{dt}=\cfrac{5}{t}\quad ,\quad x(0)=7\to &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;f(t)=0\\&#10;t=7&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\displaystyle \int \cfrac{5}{t}\cdot dt\implies 5\int \cfrac{1}{t}\cdot dt\implies 5ln|t|+C= f(t)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, we know when f(t)=0, t=7}\implies 5ln|7|+C=0&#10;\\\\\\&#10;C=-5ln(7)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;thus\implies \boxed{5ln|t|-5ln(7)=f(t)=x}

notice |7| 7 is positive, so we can simply remove the bars and use 7 by itself
