Question

To babysit one child, Fernando charges $10 to drive to the appointment plus $4 per hour. He saves 30% of the total amount he earns. Brenna charges $6 per hour and saves 25% of the total amount she earns. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours, h, after which Fernando and Brenna will have saved the same amount of money?

10 + 0.3(4h) = 0.25(6h)
0.3(10) + 4h = 0.25(6h)
0.3(10 + 4h) = 0.25(6h)
0.3(14h) = 0.25(6h)

Answer 1

Answer:

0.3(10 + 4h) = 0.25(6h)

Answer 2

Answer:

10 + 0.3(4h) = 0.25(6h)

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of savings of Fernando = (10+4h)×(30/100) = 10 + 0.3(4h)

Amount of savings of Brenna = 6h×(25/100) = 0.25(6h)

then the needed equation is :  10 + 0.3(4h) = 0.25(6h)
