Question 1136001: Elena needs to earn at least $250 a week during her summer break to pay for college. She works two jobs—one as a swimming instructor that pays $5 an hour and the other as an intern in a genetics lab for $12.50 per hour. How many hours does Elena need to work at each job to earn at least $250 per week? Answer by ikleyn(52806) (Show Source):
5.00*W + 12.50*G >= 250 dollars,
where W is the time per week working as an sWimming instructor (in hours) and G is the time per week working as an intern in a Genetic lab.
