Answer 1

To find out how much money Jacqueline will earn this week from both jobs, we can substitute the given values of \(l\) and \(s\) into the equation:

\[ \text{Total Earnings} = 15l + 12s \]

Given:

• \(l = 5\) (hours worked as a lab assistant)
• \(s = 7\) (hours worked as a cashier)

Now plug in the values:

\[ \text{Total Earnings} = 15(5) + 12(7) \]

Calculating each part:

\[ 15(5) = 75 \] \[ 12(7) = 84 \]

Now add these amounts together:

\[ \text{Total Earnings} = 75 + 84 = 159 \]

So, Jacqueline will earn $159 this week.
