Question

Mrs Carson pays Kristen 48 for babysitting 6 hours and mrs Vasquez pays her 67.50 for babysitting 9 hours who pays Kristen the better salary explains your answer

Answer 1

To solve this problem, you want to find how much Kristen gets paid per hour, by each person.

Mrs. Carson: $48=6x => x=$8 per hour

Mrs. Vasquez: $67.50=9x => x=$7.50 per hour.

Since Mrs. Carson gives Kristen a larger hourly rate, she gets a better salary than from Mrs. Vasquez. Hope this helped!
