Gabriella is a waitress at the Hampton Grille. In one night she earned at least $75 while working a six-hour shift. If Gebriella earned $31.50 in tips, find all possibilities for the amount she earned in wages per hour. Represent your answer both algebraically and graphically.
---------------------------------------------
Earnings = wages + tips
E(x) = x + 31.50 >= 75
---
Solve for "x":
wages = x >= 43.50
=========================
I'll leave the graph to you.
