Question

Michael is paid $9 per hour to work at the movie theater and $7 per hour when he helps his aunt at her bakery. Michael cannot work more than 32 hours in a week, but he wishes to earn at least $251 each week. Which weekly work schedule is within Michael’s constraints?

Answer 1

Answer:

The first one/$9 an hour job.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 32 hours he works at the $9 per hour job he makes $288.

On the other hand, for every 32 hours he works at the $7 per hour job he only makes $224.

So the only one that'll work where he gets at least $251 is the $9 an hour job.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
