Kristy makes 5$ per hour babysitting and 12$ per hour giving music lessons. One weekend, she worked a total of 18 hours and made $139.00. How many hours did she spend babysitting? Write your answer in complete sentences.

Respuesta :

Let Karen works x hours baby sitting
So, she worked (18-x) hours giving music lessons
So,
According to question
5x + 12(18-x)=139
This gives
7*x=77
x=11
So,
Karen worked 11 hours baby sitting and (18-11)=7 hours giving music lessons
