Question

Kersha has two jobs. During the day, she works as an office clerk, and in the evening she works as a cashier. Her office job pays her $12.00 per hour, and her cashier job pays her $8.25 per hour. In one week, Kersha worked 55 hours, and she earned a total of $585.

If c represents the number of hours Kersha works as an office clerk, write an equation that can be used to find how many hours Kersha worked in both jobs.

A.
8.25c + 12(55 – c) = 585

B.
12c + 8.25(585 – c) = 55

C.
12c + 8.25(c – 5) = 585

D.
12c + 8.25(55 – c) = 585

Answer 1

well we know c is the amount of office clerk hours so it would have to be multiplied by 12. So we can eliminate A right off the bat.

Answer 2

Since we know she worked c hours at the office clerk job. and the total hours worked was 55. We can conclude that the hours worked as a cashier is 55-c

Answer 3

Therefore D must be the answer
