Question

A babysitter charges $8 per hour for each job sheworks and charges a travel allowance of $10 for eachjob. Which of the following equations gives the numberof hours worked h, the babysitter worked at a job forwhich she charged $78?a) 18h = 78b) 10h + 8 = 78c) 8h + 10 = 78d) 8(10 + h) = 78

Answer 1

A babysitter charges $8 per hour for each job she works, then after h hours, she charges 8h dollars

Also, she charges a travel allowance of $10 for each job, then after h hours in one job, she charges 8h + 10 dollars

If she charged $78, then the equation is:

c) 8h + 10 = 78
