how do you make this into an equation?
whats the x and y intercept?
She has two jobs, at her first job she makes $10 per hour, at her second job she makes $12 per hour. last week she made $440.
Do it yourself. Ya nasty little cheater.
To create an equation, let's assign variables to the unknowns. Let x represent the number of hours worked at the first job and y represent the number of hours worked at the second job.
Since she makes $10 per hour at the first job and $12 per hour at the second job, you can write an equation for the total amount she made:
10x + 12y = 440
This equation represents the relationship between the number of hours worked at each job and the total amount earned.
To find the x-intercept (where the line intersects the x-axis), set y = 0 in the equation. Solving for x, you get:
10x + 12(0) = 440
10x = 440
x = 440 / 10
x = 44
Therefore, the x-intercept is 44, meaning she would need to work 44 hours at her first job alone to earn $440.
To find the y-intercept (where the line intersects the y-axis), set x = 0 in the equation. Solving for y, you get:
10(0) + 12y = 440
12y = 440
y = 440 / 12
y ≈ 36.67
Therefore, the y-intercept is approximately 36.67, meaning she would need to work around 36.67 hours at her second job alone to earn $440.
it makes no sense to me.
Ann has two job offers. Job A pays $12 per hour. Job B pays $8 per hour. Assume she work n hours per week. Write an expression for the number of dollars she would earn at each job. She would work 13 hours each week at job A. SheShe would work 16 hours each week at job B. At which job would she earn more money? Use pencil and paper. For what possible reasons would AnnAnn choose job A? Job B?
Assume she works n hours per week. Write an expression for the number of dollars she would earn at job A.
She would earn nothing dollars per week working n hours at job A.
