Choose the equation and the inequality needed to answer this question.

trevor tutors french for $15 and hour and scoops ice cream for $10 an hour. he is going to work 15 hours this week. at least how many hours does he need to tutor to make more than $180? let x equal the number of hours he tutors and y be the number of hours he scoops ice cream.

options (you can pick more than one):

x + y = 15
x + y > 15
x + y < 15
15x + 10y = 180
15x + 10y > 180
15x + 10y < 180

so far all i have it the fourth option (15x + 10y = 180).

Actually, what you said you have so far is not correct.  The 2 correct answers are the 1st one (x + y = 15) and the 5th one (15x + 10y > 180)

Step-by-step explanation:

If tutoring French is x hours and scooping ice cream is y hours and he is going to work 15 hours for sure doing both, then we can add them together to get that x hours + y hours = 15 hours, or put simply:  x + y = 15.

Now we are going to throw in the added fun of the money he makes doing each.  The thing to realize here is that we can only add like terms.  So looking at the equation above, we have x hours of tutoring and y hours of scooping, so if we want to add them, we will add those number of hours together to get the total number of hours he worked, which we know to be 15.  The same goes for money.  If we add money earned from tutoring to money earned from scooping, we need that to be greater than the money he wants to earn which is 180 at least.  Because he wants to earn MORE than $180. we use the ">" sign.  Since he earns $15 an hour tutoring, that expression is $15x; since he earns $10 an hour scooping, that expression is $10y.  Now add them together (and you CAN because they are both expressions relating dollars to dollars) and set the sum > $180:

$15x + $10y > $180.  That's why your answer is not correct.  Use mine (with the understanding that you care about why yours is wrong and mine is correct) and you'll be fine.

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
