Answer:

By the 4th hour of working, both jobs pay 80, but Job B will pay less by the 5th hour, and continues to pay less as time progresses after that.

Draw the graph of Job b on the same graph as A and you'll see exactly when A passes B.

He'll make more at job A if he works more than 4-5 hours, but more at job B if he works less than 4-5 hours (again, don't know at exactly what time A passes B, wouldn't recommend putting "4-5" on a paper)

Explanation:

hour job A pay job B pay

----------------------------------------------------------

0 $0 $30

1 $ 20 $42.50

2 $40 $55

3 $60 $67.50

4 $ 80 $80

5 $100 $ 92.50

Hope this helps!
