Question

, working as a lab assistant, and $12 per hour, s
, working as a cashier. This is modeled by 15l+12s
. Evaluate for l=5
and s=7
to find how much money Jacqueline will earn at her two jobs this week. (1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how much money Jacqueline will earn this week from her two part-time jobs, we can use the provided formula:

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

We will evaluate it for \( l = 5 \) (hours worked as a lab assistant) and \( s = 7 \) (hours worked as a cashier).

Substituting the values into the equation:

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

Calculating each term:

1. \( 15(5) = 75 \)
2. \( 12(7) = 84 \)

Now, add the two results together:

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

Thus, Jacqueline will earn $159 this week from her two jobs.
