this is a problem in "translating" English into math Tori is only able to work up to 20 hours per week, *work up to 20 hours* means she can work 20 hours or less, right? if she has two jobs, tutoring and receptionist, you should give a "name" to the number of hours worked at each job. Use t for hours of tutoring. Use r for hours of receptioning (?) can you make an equation for the total number of hours worked in a week?
is it D?
how did you get it?
guessed
if you work t hours at 1 job and r hours at another job, how many hours total did you work?
if it were numbers, could you answer the question: 3 hours at 1 job and 10 hours at the other. how many hours total did you work?
I'm sorry I have to go. my baby needs me. thank you for your help though :)
