Question

Learning Target 3B

A hairstylist charges $15 for an adult haircut
and $9 for a child haircut. She wants to earn at
least $360 dollars and cut a maximum of
30 haircuts this week.
List two ordered pairs (x, y) that could
represent the numbers of adult and child
haircuts that meet the hairstylist's goals.
Then Describe what each number of the
ordered pairs you chose means in terms of the
situation.

Answer 1

The point that could represent the numbers of adults and child haircuts that meet the stylist goals is 25, 0.

Since the hairstylist change $15 for an adult haircut and $9 for a child haircut, then using 25, 0 will be:

= 15(25) + 9(0)

= 375 + 0

= $375

Therefore, she has earned at least 360 dollars and cut about 25 haircuts this week.

In conclusion, the correct option is A.
