Answer:

First line

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolating 2a is the first step, so adding 5 to each side. That leaves -2a > 8. Divide both sides by -2, and because it's a negative, you flip the sign. so you get a < -4

Answer:

Allison worked 6 hours lifeguarding and 3 hours washing cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of hours Allison worked lifeguarding last week = x

Number of hours Allison worked washing cars last week = y

1. Last week Allison worked 3 more hours lifeguarding than hours washing cars hours, then

$x-y=3$

<u>Lifeguarding:</u>

$12 per hour

$12x in x hours.

<u>Washing cars:</u>

$8 pere hour

$8y in y hours.

2. Allison earned a total of $96, hence

$12x+8y=96$

You get the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x-y=3\\ \\12x+8y=96\end{array}\right.$

Plot the graphs of these two equations (see attached diagram). These line intersect at point (6,3), so Allison worked 6 hours lifeguarding and 3 hours washing cars.
