1 answer

To find out how much Alicia will earn for a job that takes 3 hours, we can substitute \( h = 3 \) into the expression \( 65h + 100 \).

Here's the calculation:

\[ Earnings = 65h + 100 \]

Substituting \( h = 3 \):

\[ Earnings = 65(3) + 100 \] \[ = 195 + 100 \] \[ = 295 \]

Alicia will earn $295 for a job that takes 3 hours.
