Question 841290: Sarah has two part-time jobs and needs to earn at least $300 total per week. Job A pays her $10 an hour and job B pays $7.50 an hour. Write an inequality that represents this scenario. Name and label your variables, such as Job A= x.
I just wanted to see if this is correct.
Let x= Job A
Let y- Job B
10x + 7.50y <= (less than or equal) 300
