Answer:

Y = 15x + 30 and 8 hours

Explanation:

She gets $15 per hour so her income is based on her hours, but we don't know what that is yet so, 15x.

She gets a solid $30 every week that is straight forward

To solve the function

150 = 15x + 30

subtract 30 from both sides

120 = 15x

divide 15 from both sides

8 = x

or

x = 8

You got this :)
