Question

Jacqueline has two part-time jobs. She earns $15 per hour, U, working as a lab assistant, and $12 per hour, s, working as a cashier. This is modeled by 156 12s. Evaluate for 1 = 5 and s = 7 to find how much money Jacqueline will earn at her two jobs this week. (1 point)

Answer 1

Jacqueline will earn $159 this week by working 5 hours as a lab assistant and 7 hours as a cashier.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacqueline's earnings can be calculated by using the given rates and hours she works at her two part-time jobs.

The expression for calculating Jacqueline's total earnings is given as 15U + 12s, where U represents the number of hours

she works as a lab assistant, and s represents the number of hours she works as a cashier.

With U = 5 and s = 7, we substitute these values into the expression:

Total Earnings = 15(5) + 12(7)

Total Earnings = 75 + 84

Total Earnings = $159

Thus, Jacqueline will earn $159 from her two jobs this week.
