Answer 1

Answer:  Choice A

9.80h+10 = 88.40

===========================================================

Work Shown:

• h = number of hours worked.
• 9.80h = amount of money earned after working h number of hours (ignoring the meal bonus).
• 9.80h+10 = total amount of money earned after adding on the meal bonus.
• 9.80h+10 = 88.40 is the equation we use since the total 9.80h+10 is the same as the total she earned 88.40 dollars.

--------------------

Extra info (optional section)

If you want to solve for h, then you could follow these steps.

9.80h+10 = 88.40

9.80h = 88.40-10 ... subtract 10 from both sides

9.80h = 78.40

h = 78.40/9.80 .... divide both sides by 9.80

h = 8

Valerie worked 8 hours on Friday.

As a check,

9.80h + 10 = 88.40

9.80*8 + 10 = 88.40

78.40 + 10 = 88.40

88.40 = 88.40

The answer is confirmed.
