Question

A waitress earned $9 per hour at her job plus an additional $75 in tips on Friday. She earned more than $150 total. Which inequality best represents the situation, where h represents the number of hours she worked on Friday? *

A. 9 + 75h > 150
B. 9 + 75h ≥ 150
C. 9h + 75 > 150
D. 9h + 75 ≥ 150

Answer 1

C. 9h + 75 > 150

Explanation:

One part is that it says that she makes more than, not more than or equal too 150. Which cuts the options down to two.

A. and C.

The second thing that the text says is that she makes 9 dollars and hour, not 75 an hour. Which means that A. can't be the answer.

Thus, C. is the correct answer.

Have a good day and good luck!
