Answer 2

✠ Given data ✠

• Tamekia earns between $6.00 and $6.25 per hour.

• Marsha earns between $7.50 and $8.00 per hour.

✠ To find ✠ How much more money will Marsha earn than Tamekia if they each work 22 hours ?

✠ Step-by-step explanation ✠

• In one hour, Tamekia earns between $6.00 and $6.25.

• Then in 22 hours, she will earn between $(22 × 6.00) and $(22 × 6.25), i.e., between $132.00 and $137.50.

• In one hour, Marsha earns between $7.50 and $8.00.

• Then in 22 hours, she will earn between $(22 × 7.50) and $(22 × 8.00), i.e., between $165.00 and $176.00.

Clearly, Marsha will earn more than Tamekia.

• Here, $(165.00 - 132.00) = $33.00
• and $(176.00 - 137.50) = $38.50

✠ Answer ✠

Therefore, Marsha will earn about between $33.00 and $38.50 more than Tamekia if they each work for 22 hours.
