110 ÷ 10 = 11

She Will Got 110 If she Work 11 hours

110 - 16 = 94 ÷ 11 = 8

Given, Sylvie needs $110 for a concert ticket.

Sylvie has $16.

Her hourly earnings = $h

Sylvie is working 10 hours at her job.

She is getting in 1 hour = $h

So, 10 hours she will get = $ = $

So the total amount she has now = $16 + $(10h) = $()

So we can write the equation as,

110=16+10h

We can move 16 to the left side also. 16 is added to the right side. We can move it by using reverse operation of addition. Reverse operation of addition is subtraction. So we will subtract 16 from both sides. Subtracting 16 we will get,

110-16=16+10h-16

110-16=10h

We have got the required answer.

To find Sylvie's hourly income the correct options are option A and option D.
