Jada has time on the weekends to earn some money. A local bookstore is looking for someone to help sort books and will pay $12.20 an hour. To get to and from the bookstore on a work day, however, Jada would have to spend $7.15 on bus fare. 1. Write an equation that represents Jada’s take-home earnings in dollars, E, if she works at the bookstore for h hours in one day. 2. One day, Jada takes home $90.45 after working h hours and after paying the bus fare. Write an equation to represent this situation.

Respuesta :

Answer:

E = 12.20(h) - 7.15

h = 6.82 hours

Given:

Pay hour = $12.20 per hour

Bus fare = $7.15

1.Equation:

Assume

She has work for "h" hours

Total earning = E

So,

E = 12.20(h) - 7.15

If,

Total earning = E = $90.45

So,

E = 12.20(h) - 7.15

90.45 = 12.20(h) - 7.15

h = 6.82 hours
