Answer:

Latisha worked 7 hours last week.

Explanation:

First information: Last week, Eldon worked 4 hours more than Latisha.

E = Eldon's hours worked

L = Latisha's hours worked

E = L + 4

Second information: Together (Latisha and Eldon) earned $166. Then:

8L + 10E = 166

{E = L + 4

{8L + 10E = 166

8L + 10E = 166

8L + 10(L + 4) = 166

8L + 10L + 40 = 166

18L = 166 - 40

18L = 126

L = 7

I hope I've helped you.
