Need help fixing the two eaquations in my word problem. I was told that the variable x does nto stand for the same value in each equation. So can someone help. 1.	Mrs. Lewis is returning back to the workforce after three years of raising her son Joey. Before she goes back to work she must find suitable daycare for Joey, one that will not break the bank either. After months of looking she has narrowed the field to two final selections Kiddie Castle which is a daycare facility about half way between home and work, the other is Cultural Au Pair in which the person comes to your home and takes car

care of the child there. Kiddie Castle charges a flat rate of $224 for 35 hours a week, even if you go 30 hours the cost is still the same, but if you go over the 35 hours you are then charged an hourly rate of $6.00. Cultural Au Pair charges a hourly rate of $7.00, you can have the caretaker for 25 hours a week or 40 and the rate will not change. Mrs. Lewis will be working about 37 hours a week so she needs to see which would be the best choice for her son and her wallet.
