Part B) If Jacqueline works 2 hours working as a lab assistant and 4 hours as a cashier, how much money will she earn altogether? b = 2 and c = 4

1 answer

Let's assume Jacqueline earns $x per hour as a lab assistant and $y per hour as a cashier.

To find Jacqueline's total earnings, we need to calculate the total earnings from both jobs.

Earnings from the lab assistant job = hours worked as a lab assistant * hourly wage as a lab assistant
= 2 * x

Earnings from the cashier job = hours worked as a cashier * hourly wage as a cashier
= 4 * y

Total earnings = Earnings from the lab assistant job + Earnings from the cashier job
= 2x + 4y
