Question 181384: Problem Solving
Gina works for a clothing designer. She is paid $80/day plus $1.50 for each pair of jeans she makes. Dexter also works for the designer, but he makes $110/day and no extra money for finishing jeans.
a) Write an equation to represent the amount that Gina earns in 1 day. Graph the equation.
b) Write an equation to represent the amount that Dexter earns in 1 day. Graph this equation on the same grid as in part a).
c) How many pairs of jens must Gina to make in order to make as much in a day as Dexter?
Pleaseeeeeeeeeee i need it today and thank you very much

:
a)Gina Earnings: E=1.5(p)+80....where E is earnings and P is number of jeans she makes
:
b)Dexter Earnings: E=110.........where E is the earnings
:
c)we want the two to be equal so set the equations equal to each other
:
1.5p+80=110
:
1.5p=30
: pairs of jeans. So Gina needs to make 20 pair of Jeans in a day in order to get paid what Dexter gets paid

notice on the graph that the lines intersect at (20,110)
