Jay works two jobs, at a daycare center and at a grocery store. The number of hours he works at the grocery store is twice the number of hours he works at the daycare. Jay works a total of 42 hours per week. Which equation can be used to find the number of hours that Jay works at the daycare?
assume Jay works x hours in daycare, which means he works 2x hours in the grocery store, he totally works 42 hours per week equal to x hours in daycare plus 2x in the grocery store.
