Answer
x>21.2
Step-by-step explanation:
7.55x+100>160:
subtract 100 on both sides to get:
7.55x>60:
divide 7.55 on both sides:
x>21.2 is your answer
Answer:
7.50h + 100 > 160
Step-by-step explanation:
7.50 is the hourly wage
h = hours he worked
add 100 once because it’s his tips for the amount of time her worked
since he worked more than 160, you’ll use the greater sign
then solve for h
h = 8 hours
