Answer 1

The internship pays $7.5 an hour.

Explanation:

From the information given, the equation would indicate that the amount the student earns per hour at the intership for two plus seven would be equal to 22:

2x+7=22

Now, you can solve for x:

2x=22-7

2x=15

x=15/2

x=7.5

According to this, the answer is that the internship pays $7.5 an hour.
