During the summer, you work 30 hours per week at a gas station and earn $8.75 per hour. You also work as a landscaper for $11 per hour and can work as many hours as you want. You want to earn a total of $400 per week. Write an equation that represents the numbers of hours worked as a landscaper to earn your desired $400.

• 30 + 8.75 + 11 + h = 400

• 30(11) + 8.75h = 400

• 30 + 11h = 400

• 30(8.75) + 11h = 400

You pay $45 per month for cable TV. Your friend buys a satellite TV receiver for $99 and pays $36 per month for satellite TV. Your friend claims that the expenses for a year of satellite TV are less than the expenses for a year of cable. Write an equation to represent when you and your friend will have paid the same amount for TV service.

• 45m = 36m

• 45m + 99 = 36m

• 45m = 99 + 36m

• 45m = 99 – 36m
