Gabriella expects to earn $50 in tips during her shift as a waitress today. In addition to tips, she earns $8.00 an hour. If she wants to make at least $114 today, how many hours must she work at a minimum?

Work backwards
$114 least made that day-$50in tips =
$64 made in hourly earnings

$8 each hour x 8hours= $64

She must work minimum 8 hours.
