Michael has two jobs. he earns $9.25 per hour at a pet store and earns $8.90 per hour at a telemarking job. if p represents the number of hours worked at the pet store and t represents the number of as a telemarketer, then which inequality describes the relationship between p and the t that is necessary for michael to earn at least $100?

9.25 p + 8.90 t ≥ 100 describes the relationship between p and the t  for Michael to earn at least $100.

Step-by-step explanation:

p  =  Number of hours worked at the pet store

Earning per hour at pet store  =  $9.25

t = Number of hours worked as a telemarketer

Earning per hour at telemarketing job   =  $8.90

Now, total amount earned at pet store after working p hours = p x $9.25

and total amount earned at tele job after working t hours =  t x $8.90

Now, according to the question

Total money earned at pet store +  Total earning at telemarketing job = At least $100

⇒   9.25 p + 8.90 t ≥ 100

Hence,  9.25 p + 8.90 t ≥ 100 describes the relationship between p and the t .
