BRAINLIEST ANSWER!!
During the summer, you work 30 hours per week at the gas station and earn $8.75 per hour. You also work as a landscaper for $11 per hour and can work as many hours as you want. You want to earn a total of $400 per week. How many hours, t, must you work as a landscaper?

Identify an equation that can be used to answer the question.
A) 30t=400-8.75(11)
B) 8.75+11+400=30+t
C) 8.75t+11t=400
D) 30(8.75)+11t=400

Solve the equation to find the number of hours you must work as a landscaper.

You must work ___ hours as a landscaper.

1. What is given is you work for 30 hours per week at a gas station for $8.75 an hour. You also work as a landscaper for $11 an hour. You want to a make a total of $400 per week.

30 hours and $8.75 an hour would be equivalent to 30(8.75)

We don’t know how many hours you work as a landscaper but you earn $11 an hour, which is equivalent to 11t

Finally, you want to earn a total of $400 a week, which means the sum equals 400

30(8.75) + 11t = 400

2. 30(8.75) = 262.5

400 - 262.5 = 137.5

137.5 / 11 = 12.5
