Question

Hailey created her own cleaning service and uses the equation t = 20n + 15 to represent her total earnings, t, for each job. If she earned a total of $80, how many hours, n, did she work?

Answer 1

Explanation:

t = 20n + 15

t = 80

80 = 20n + 15

65 = 20n

n = 65/20 = 13/4 = 3.25 hours
