Choose the equation and the inequality needed to answer this question. Trevor tutors French for $15 and hour and scoops ice cream for $10 an hour. He is going to work 15 hours this week.

Answer:

One second let me look it up for u :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Total number of hours = 15

Let the hours spent tutoring french be x.

Therefore hours spent on scooping ice cream = (15 - x)

Amount:    Tutoring french is $15 an hour, total for x hours = 15x

For scooping ice cream  it is $10 an hour   10*(15 - x) = 150 - 10x  

To make more than $180

15x  + (150 - 10x)  > 180

15x + 150 - 10x > 180

15x - 10x > 180 - 150

5x > 30

x > 30/5

x > 6

trevor needs to tutor 6 hours to make more than 180

I hope this helped :)
