Question

Jose works mowing lawns and babysitting. He earns $8.70 an hour for mowing and $7.60 an hour for babysitting. How much will he earn for 1 hour of mowing and 1 hours of babysitting?

Answer 1

Answer:

$16.30 total

Step-by-step explanation:

Earnings(x,y) = ($8.70/mowing hour)x + ($7.60/sitting hour)y

So, for one hour of mowing and 1 hour of sitting,

Earnings(1, 1) = $8.70(1) + $7.60(1) = $16.30
