Question

Pam has two part-time jobs. At one job, she works as a cashier and makes $8 per hour. At the second job, she works as a tutor and makes$12 per hour. One week she worked 30 hours and made$268 .

Answer 1

Answer: 8C + 12T= 268

               C + T = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Cashier:  8$/ hr

Tutor:       12$/hr

made $268 for 30 hours

C = # of hours for cashier

T= # of hours for tutor

*For these type of equations, keep $ with $ and quantity with quantity

So you would the 8/hr to 12/hr to equal the total money and add the quantity(in this equation c and t) with the total hours.
