I 10. One day, Timmy works 4 hours and makes an additional $50 in tips. Another day, he works 6 hours and gets an additional $70 in tips. This makes his total earnings 4h + 50 - 6h + 70 - M, where M is the money he earns and h is the wage he makes per hour. If he makes $205, how much did he make as a salary per hour?

Pls help​

Answer:

$8.50/h

Explanation:

I am unsure of the - in the equation. This should be 4h+50+6h+70=M

then we would set the equation equal to the $205

205=4h+50+6h+70

if we simplify we have

205=10h+120

then we would get the h by itself and we get

205-120=10h

85.00=10h

85.00/10=10h/10

8.50=h
