Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.

Answer 2.85
On rounding to nearest hundredths, we get than 2.85 as at thousandths place, there is 9 which is greater than 5, so 1 is added to the hundredth value.
Answer:
no I do not agree, Because it doesn't make since
If an employee earns 200 dollars for 14 hours work, that means this person gets approximately 14 dollars and 29 cents per every hour.
Thus, in 35 hours, you can multiply 14.29 by 35 to get about 500 dollars.
In 35 hours, the employee will earn 500 dollars.
