Kathy babysits for $7.25 an hour plus $5.75 in transportation cost. Jared babysits for $7.50 an hour plus $3.25 in transportation cost. After how many hours is Jared the more expensive sitter?

After 11 hours Jared is the most expensive sitter

Explanation: kathys equation = 7.25(11) + 5.75= 85.50$

Jareds equation = 7.50(11) + 3.25= 85.75$


At 11 hours is when Jared exceeds kathy, he is more expensive
