Nick works two jobs to pay for college. He tutors for $15 per hour and also works as a bag boy for $8 per hour. Due to his class and study schedule, Nick is only able to work up to 20 hours per week, but must earn at least $150 per week. If t represents the number of hours Nick tutors and b represents the number of hours he works as a bag boy, which system of inequalities represents this scenario? t + b greater than or equal to 20 15t + 8b = 150 t + b less than or greater to 20 15t + 8b greater than or equal to 150 t + b less than or greater to 20 15t + 8b less than or greater to 150 None of the systems shown represent this scenario.
c
right?
@agent0smith
15t + 8b <(or equal to) 150 is the best answer in this case. Where b+t=20 Because 15 is how much money per t hours of tutoring and 8 is money per b hours of bagging groceries. Both of these need to add up to at least 150
