Mark used a graph to compare the wages from two restaurant jobs. A dishwasher earns 7.25$ per hour, while a waiter earns 3.75$ per hour in addition to 25$ per day.

To the nearest hour, when will the two jobs earn the same amount?

Explain why your estimate is reasonable.

Your missing the graph

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

To the nearest hour, when will the two jobs earn the same amount?

Answer = 7

Explain why your estimate is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Waiter: y = 25 + 3.75x { x which is the time mark work}

Dishwasher: y = 7.25x

⇒ 25 + 3.75x = 7.25x [Same amount]

25 = 3.5x

x = 7.14285714286

Round:

x = 7
