Jackie has two summer jobs. She works as a tutor, which pays $12 per hour, and she works as a lifeguard, which pays $9.50 per hour. She can work no more than 20 hours per week, but she wants to earn at least $220 per week. Which of the following systems of inequalities represents this situation in terms of x and y, where x is the number of hours she tutors and y is the number of hours she works as a lifeguard?

• $12x+9.5y\le220$ $x+y\ge20$

• $12x+9.5y\le220$ $x+y\le20$

• $12x+9.5y\ge220$ $x+y\le20$

• $12x+9.5y\ge220$ $x+y\ge20$
