Answer 1

Answer:3.35ℎ−0.14y

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Kristin's earnings last week, we need to consider her hourly wage and deduct the cost of the broken dishes.

Kristin earned $3.35 per hour, so her total earnings before deducting the cost of broken dishes would be 3.35×ℎ

The cost of the broken dishes is 0.14×y

So, her total earnings last week would be

3.35ℎ−0.14y.
