Bernie, a caterer, is investing some money in equipment and employees to help grow his business. Recently he spent $40 on equipment and hired a server who makes $12 per hour. Bernie is hoping to make up these expense at the next job that is scheduled, which pays a base of $30 in addition to $14 per hour that the server works. In theory, this event could pay enough to cancel out Bernie's expenditures. How much would the job pay?

Write a system of equations, graph them, and type the solution.
