Question

Soren has two jobs. During the day, he works as an office clerk, and in the evening he works as a cashier. His office job pays him $11 per hour, and his cashier job pays him $8.75 per hour. In one week, Soren worked 46 hours, and he earned a total of $470.

If c represents the number of hours that Soren works as an office clerk, write an equation that can be used to find how many hours Soren worked in both jobs.
11c + 8.75(46 – c) = 470
11c + 8.75(c – 46) = 470
11c + 8.75(470 – c) = 46
8.75c + 11(46 – c) = 470

Answer 1

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

It would be A because c is the hours worked for working as an office clerk. You would subtract that from the total hours worked and multiply it by the money he makes for the other job to get the total. Therefore it's A.
