campbell_st · Answer

the question is based around creating equations for each person 

Amy: Income = 18 x h + 40

Elizabeth: Income = 12 x h + 100

to find where the how many hours give equal incomes equate the equations

18h + 40 = 12h + 100

now solve for h. 

when you get h, the number of hours that give equal incomes you can calculate the amount each earns. 

Hope it makes sense
