So
a be first term and d be common difference
- a+a+2d+a+4d+a+6d+a+9d=17
- 5a+21d=17--(1)
And
- a+d+a+3d+a+5d+a+7d+a+9d=15
- 5a+25d=15--(2)
Eq(1)-Eq(2)
Put in second one
- 5a+25d=15
- a+5d=3
- a+5/2=15
- a=15-5/2
- a=25/2

To make it like a simple, I'll make an equation. Let x be the number of hours because x represents unknown and we don't know the hours. Then your per hour is $7.25 right? so it would be x7.25. You want to know how many hours you will work so you can earn $125. The equation is simple as this x7.25 = 125.
All you have to do is divide the equation by 7.25 because that's your per hour.
It will look like this, <u>x7.25</u> = <u>125</u> then the answer would be 17.24 hours.
7.25 7.25
16.06 divided by 22 = 0.73 so the answer would be 73 cents? Sorry im from the UK and don't know about dollars/cents
