Joshua babysits for his sister after school. He is paid $3.00 for each hour of babysitting. He has saved $43.50
and wants to buy a toy that costs $70. What is the least
amount of hours Josh needs to babysit to purchase the
toy?

Plz help

9 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Joshua has already saved $43.50 so you subtract $43.50 from 70 which leaves you with $26.50. Joshua still needs $26.50.

$26.50 divided by $3 per hr is 8.833 repeating. Obviously you can’t work 8.833 hrs so you round it up to 9. So, Joshua has to work for at least 9 hrs more.

Hope this helps :)

i you goofed up when writing this, because hnot is not a word minusf is not either. i cannot answer   because of that.

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
