summer begins from june 1st until august 31st. i can make $6.00 per hour working in a camera shop. $800
is the cost of living expenses. write equations for earning exactly $1000 and $2000 that include hourly wage and the cost of living expenses.solve your equations to determine how long in hours and weeks it would take to pay off living expenses.
Is $800 living expenses for what period? Week? Month? The whole period?
How about
6x - 800 = 1000 for hours to earn $1000.
How many hours/week will you work?
This should give you a start. I hope it helps. Thanks for asking.
