EXCEEDS Lin's job pays $8.25 an hour plus $10 of transportation allowance each week. She has
to work at least 5 hours a week to keep the job but not more than 20 hours by state
law.
1. What is Lin's income range based on the above information? Write your answer as
a compound inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

x ≥ 5, 8.25x + 10 = 175, and x = 20 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Lin works x hours per week.

Now given that Lin’s job pays $8.25 an hour plus $10 of transportation allowance each week.

And she has to work at least 5 hours a week to $175 per week.

So, the inequality that can be written from the above condition is x ≥ 5 (1)

And the equation that can be written that

8.25x + 10 = 175 (2)

So now we can write x = 20 hours

step-by-step explanation:

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
