if not, if she does 8 hours tutoring = 80 plus, 12 hours pizza delivery = 84 total 164 otherwise 3 hours tutoring = 30 and 17 hours pizza = 119 total 149

164 if she does 8 hours tutoring 149 if she does 3 hours tutoring and the rest is pizza delivery

ok if she wants to tutor for 8 hours and deliver pizza for the rest of her 20 hours of work = $10 * 8 hours = $80 plus $7 times 12 hours = $84 add the to totals = $164 from both jobs
