Answer:
<em>The employees will work for 1 hour, will earn $5 per hour and will be paid $5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
The number of hours the employees work is x.
And the hourly wage that they are paid is y. The store manager is willing to pay the employees a wage given by the equation
10y-30x=20
The business owner states that the employees should be paid a wage given by the equation
6y+30x=60
Adding both equations we have:
16y = 80
Dividing by 16:
y = 80/16 = 5
Substituting into the first equation:
10*5-30x=20
Operating and simplifying:
50-30x=20
50 - 20 = 30x
30x = 30
x = 30/30 = 1
Thus, the employees will work for 1 hour, will earn $5 per hour and will be paid $5
3 < 3x+6
-3<3x
-1<x
3x+6<24
3x<18
x<6
-1<x<6 the book is right
