Answer:

Katherine need to work minimum 10 hours lifeguarding to meet her requirements

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rate for Lifeguarding = $16\ per\ hour

Rate for walking dogs = $6 \ per\ hour

She had worked 2 hours walking dog

Money for walking dogs = Rate for walking dogs\times hours worked=\$6\times2=\$12

she can work a maximum of 15 total hours and must earn at least $160.

Let hours required for lifeguarding be x

Money for life guarding = Rate for walking dogs\times hours worked for lifrguarding= \$16 \timesx=16x

Total Money she must earn = Money for lifeguarding + Money for walking dogs

16x+12=160\\16x=160-12\\16x=148\\x=\frac{148}{16}=9.25 \ hours

Rounding to nearest hour

Katherine need to work minimum 10 hours lifeguarding to meet her requirements

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the variable income per job:</u>

<u />

First job= 450 - 150= 300

Second job= 675 - 150= 525

<u>Now, the hourly rate:</u>

<u></u>

Hourly rate= total variable income / number of hours

First job= 300 / 4= $75

Second job= 525 / 3= $175

It is probably that the second job was 7 hours long. If not, he doesn't charge the same amount per hour
