Joe earns $10 per hour babysitting and $5 per hour dog walking. He also earns tips for each job. Last week Joe spent 6 more hours walking dogs than babysitting. He received $5 in tips for babysitting and $10 in tips for dog-walking. Joe earns the same total amount for each job. Write an equation to represent the situation. Use the variable H to represent the number of hours Joe spent babysitting.

10h + 5 = 5(h+6)+10

10h + 5 = 5h + 30 +10
10h-5h = 30 +10 -5
5h = 35
h=7
