Which system of equations matches this scenario?A. x + y = 25018x = 30B. x + y = 25010x + 8y = 30-C. x + y = 3010x + 8y = 250D. 10x + 8y = 25010x + 8y = 30

Respuesta :

Given:

Money I want to earn is $250 each week

I earn $10 per working hour as a lifegaurd and $8 per hour at a concession stand.

Total available hours to work is 30.

To find : The system of equations satisfies the statement.

Explanation:

Let x be the number of hours working as a lifegaurd and y be the number of hours earned at concession stand.

As x and y represents the hours so the total hours is written as:

[tex]x+y=30[/tex]

Equation with the total money earned.

[tex]10x+8y=250[/tex]

Therefore, the final system of equations are:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=30 \\ 10x+8y=250 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, Option C is the final answer.
