Answer:
The second choice is correct. (f(x) = 8.50x+7.50)
Angel had +7.50 dollars to start off with and then worked 5 hours to get 42.50 dollars. This means, she earns 8 dollars 50 cents per hour, meaning that 8.50x would represent the total amount of money that she would earn from her job.

Answer:
No Real Solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
√(x-5)=8√(x-2)
Square on both sides,
(√(x-5))^2=(8√(x-2))^2
or,(x-5)=64(x-2)
or,x-5=64x-128
or,-5+128=64x-x
or,123/63=x
Therefore, x=41/21
If you plug x=41/21 in √(x-5)=8√(x-2) you do not get equals, so the problem has no real solutions.
