Complete Question

Leah would like to earn at least $120 per month. She babysits for $5 per hour and works at an ice cream shop for $10 per hour. Leah cannot work more than a total of 20 hours per month. Let x represent the number of hours Leah babysits and let y

represent the number of hours Leah works at the ice cream shop.

The inequalities to solve this question is given as:

x + y ≤ 20

5x + 10y ≥ 120

Leah must spend: 16 hours babysitting and 4 hours working at the ice cream shop to earn at least $120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the hours she number of hours she babysits and y represent the hours she works at the ice cream shop. Leah cannot work more than a total of 20 hours per month.

Hence:

x + y ≤ 20 Equation 1

Leah would like to earn at least $120 per month.

She babysits for $5 an hour and works at an ice cream shop for $10 per hour.

Hence, out Equation is given as:

x × $5 + y × $10 = $120

5x + 10y ≥ 120 Equation 2

The inequalities to solve this question is given as:

x + y ≤ 20

5x + 10y ≥ 120

To find x and y:

x + y = 20

x = 20 - y

5x + 10y = 120

Substitute: 20 - y for x

5(20 - y) + 10y = 120

100 - 5y + 10y = 120

Collect like terms

- 5y + 10y = 120 - 100

5y = 20

y = 20/5

y = 4 hours

Note:

x = 20 - y

x = 20 - 4

x = 16 hours

Hence:

Leah must spend: 16 hours babysitting and 4 hours working at the ice cream shop to earn at least $120

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
