Hello there!
We are trying to find how much Mike earns when he worked for 10 hours
Lets make an equation out of the given information in the question.
We know that:
- Earns $15 each hour
- $25 bonus
We would format it as y = mx + b
Our equations would be y = 15x + 25
"x" being the amount of hours he worked
We know that he worked 10 hours, so we would plug 10 into x.
Then, we can solve.
y = 15(10) + 25
y = 150 + 25
y = 175
Answer: $175
I hope this helps!
Best regards,
MasterInvestor
