Makayla is working two summer jobs, making $19 per hour tutoring and making $12 per hour landscaping. In a given week, she can work no more than 17 total hours and must earn at least $260. If Makayla worked 3 hours landscaping, determine the minimum number of whole hours tutoring that she must work to meet her requirements. If there are no possible solutions, submit an empty answer.

Respuesta :

Answer: 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

3 hours landscaping = $36

She still needs to make $224 to meet her requirement.

$224 divided by $19 tutoring = 11.79 hours

224÷19=11.79

Rounded to the nearest whole number: 12

This would mean Makayla worked a total of 15 hours and made $264. Which meets her requirements.
