Question

Valeria does not charge an initial fee for babysitting but charges $10 an hour. Daniel charges $8 per hour plus an initial fee of $10. How many hours does Valeria need to babysit in order to make more money than Daniel?

Answer 1

it depends how many hours both of them make but here is what you can do:

Valeria needs to do 2 hours more than Daniel. This is because Daniel makes $18 and hour and Valeria makes only 10. If you do 10*2 or 10+10 you get 20 which is greater than 18. I hope this helps and good luck!
