You plan to work total of 200 hours during the summer to mow lawns and baby sit. You need to make a total of $1,300. Babysitting pays $6 an hour and mowing lawns $8 an hour. How many hours should you work at each job?

Answer: youll do 155 hours of mowing and 10 hours of babysiting.

Step-by-step explanation:

155 hrs x $8 is total $1,240.00 (mowing)

10 hrs x $6 is total $60.00 (babysiting)

1240 + 60 is 1,300
