Last week, Lindsay earned $10 per hour plus a $60 bonus for good job performance. She spends StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFractionof her paycheck on dinner with friends. If she had not earned the bonus, the amount she spent on dinner would have been StartFraction 1 Over 10 EndFraction of her paycheck. Which equation can be used to find h, the number of hours Lindsay worked last week?

StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFraction left-parenthesis 10 h plus 60 right-parenthesis equals StartFraction 1 Over 10 Endfraction left-parenthesis 10 h right-parenthesis(10h + 60) = StartFraction 1 Over 10 EndFraction(10h)
StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFraction(10h + 60h) = StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFraction left-parenthesis 10 h plus 60 h right-parenthesis equals StartFraction 1 Over 10 Endfraction left-parenthesis 10 h right-parenthesis(10h)
StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFractionh(10 + 60) = StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFraction h left-parenthesis 10 plus 60 right-parenthesis equals StartFraction 1 Over 10 Endfraction h left-parenthesis 10 right-parenthesish(10)
StartFraction 1 Over 15 EndFraction left-parenthesis 10 plus 60 h right-parenthesis equals StartFraction 1 Over 10 Endfraction left-parenthesis 10 h right-parenthesis(10 + 60h) = StartFraction 1 Over 10 EndFraction(10h)

(1/15)(10h + 60) = (1/10)(10h)

If you solve it: multiply by 30 → 2(10h+60)=3(10h) → 20h+120=30h → h=12.
