1 answer

To find out how much money Jacqueline will earn at her two jobs this week, we can substitute the values of \( l \) (hours worked as a lab assistant) and \( s \) (hours worked as a cashier) into the equation \( 15l + 12s \).

Given:

  • \( l = 5 \)
  • \( s = 7 \)

Now we can plug in these values:

\[ 15l + 12s = 15(5) + 12(7) \]

Calculating each part:

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

Now sum these amounts:

\[ 75 + 84 = 159 \]

Therefore, Jacqueline will earn $159 this week at her two jobs.
