Keith is working two jobs this summer as a lifeguard and a tutor. he earns $16 an hour as a lifeguard and $18 an hour as a tutor. he wants to earn at least $250 to put towards his car. what is one possible combination of hours he can work at each job to earn at least $250?

Answer:

He could work 10 hours as a lifeguard, and 5 hours as a tutor

Step-by-step explanation:

If he makes $16 an hour as a lifeguard

            and $18 an hour as a tutor,

He could work 10 times $16, to make $160 for 10 hours.

Now we subtract this from $250, this makes $90.

We know need to find out how many times 18 goes into 90, 5 times.

So we know that he could work 10 hours as a lifeguard and 5 hours as a tutor.

I hope this is right.

I hope this helps too, have a nice day!
