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:

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:

Total Earnings=15(5)+12(7)

Calculating each part:

15(5)=75 12(7)=84

Now add these amounts together:

Total Earnings=75+84=159

So, Jacqueline will earn $159 this week.
