PLEASE HELP I AM IN A RUSH: Jason has applied to be a camp counselor for the summer. The job pays $9 per hour. The equation to represent Jason’s job is y = 9x, where x is the number of hours he works and y is the total amount he earns. Mia has applied to be a lifeguard for the summer. The lifeguard job is three days a week with hours and pays as shown in the table below. Tuesday Thursday Saturday Hours worked 6 8 5 Amount paid $52.50 $70.00 $43.75 Which statement best describes the hourly rates? The two jobs pay the same hourly rate. The comparison cannot be made with the information given. Jason’s camp counselor job pays a higher hourly rate than Mia’s lifeguard job. Jason’s camp counselor job pays a lower hourly rate than Mia’s lifeguard job.

C: Jason’s camp counselor job pays a higher hourly rate than Mia’s lifeguard job.

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

y = 9x for Jason

For Mia

Tue  Thu  Sat

6       8      5

Tuesday : 52.50 for 6 hyours   => 8.75 / hour

Thursday :  70.00  for 8 hours  => 8.75 / hour

Saturday :   43.75 for 5 hours   => 8.75 / hour

Solution:

Therefore Mia makes 8.75 / hour

False : The two jobs pay the same hourly rate.

False : The comparison cannot be made with the information given.

True : Jason’s camp counselor job pays a higher hourly rate than Mia’s lifeguard job.

False : Jason’s camp counselor job pays a lower hourly rate than Mia’s lifeguard job.

1/3 + 1/5 = 8/15.

step-by-step explanation:

hope it

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
