Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

t = tutoring and g = grocery store

t + g = 15......t = 15 - g

15t + 9g = 159

15(15 - g) + 9g = 159

225 - 15g + 9g = 159

-15g + 9g = 159 - 225

-6g = - 66

g = -66/-6

g = 11 <===== 11 hrs worked at the grocery store

t + g = 15

t + 11 = 15

t = 15 - 11

t = 4.....4 hrs tutoring
