Since he gets paid more for tutoring, he should work as many hrs tutoring as possible. He can only work at most 20 hrs. He has to work at least 3 hrs tutoring but no more then 8 hrs.....to maximize profit, he needs to work 8 hrs tutoring...leaving 12 hrs as a teachers aide. He should work 20 hrs to maximize his earnings.

maximum profit is : 8(10) + 12(7) = 80 + 84 = 164
