you earn $10.10 

- Write an expression for how much money you will earn if you work h hours. 

- Your friend works a different job but makes the same hourly wage as you, plus he receives tips. Write an expression for your friend’s total earnings for a week during which he works n hours and receives a total of $40 in tips. Then, evaluate the expression for n = 10 and explain what that number means. 

- Write a single expression for the sum of your earnings for 3 weeks and your friend’s earnings for 2 weeks. You each work r hours per week and our friend receive $40 in tips per week. Simplify the expression. 

- Write an expression to show the difference between your and your friend’s earning for one week: you work h hours, your friend works n hours, and your friend earns t dollars in tips. (Hint: Be sure to consider the fact that you do not know who earns more money

a hint im gonna give you is to use slope intercept and to plug in values...also pay attention to the context


also,,, the context is kind of unclear.

You will earn  10.10h  dollars

 

 Your friend works a different job but makes the same hourly wage as you, plus he receives tips. Write an expression for your friend’s total earnings for a week during which he works n hours and receives a total of $40 in tips. Then, evaluate the expression for n = 10 and explain what that number means. 

 

Your friend  will earn [ 10.10n + 40 ] dollars per week....where n is the number of hours he works   

If n = 10.....he works 10 hours....and he earns  10.10 * 10  + 40   =  $141 

 

 

 Write a single expression for the sum of your earnings for 3 weeks and your friend’s earnings for 2 weeks. You each work r hours per week and our friend receive $40 in tips per week. Simplify the expression. 

 

You will earn  3 * 10.10 r =  [30.30 r] dollars  for the three weeks

Your friend will earn 2*10.10 r + 40  = 20.20r + 40 for two weeks   

 

- Write an expression to show the difference between your and your friend’s earning for one week: you work h hours, your friend works n hours, and your friend earns t dollars in tips. (Hint: Be sure to consider the fact that you do not know who earns more money 

 

You  make 10.10 h  dollars per week

Your friend makes [10.10 n + t ] dollars per week

The difference is   l  10.10h - (10.10n + t)  l dollars.......we need the absolute value bars because we don't know which person earns more
