Question

For each babysitting job, Ashley charges $2.50 for bus fare and $8.00 per hour for each hour she works. She charged $30.50 for her last babysitting jib.

Write an equation representative if this situation. Do not solve it.

What does the variable represent?

Answer 1

2.50 x 8.00 = ?, ? x 30.50 = ?, Now what is your answer?

Answer 2

If t represents the hours she babysits,

Charge = 8t + 2.50

that is, your equation would be

<b>8t + 2.50 = 30.50</b>

I have not clue why Smiley is multiplying the hourly fee by the cost of the bus ride.
Smiley's reply is gibberish.
