John works two jobs. He earns $10 an hour babysitting his neighbor's children and $15 an hour mowing lawns in his neighborhood. Last week he worked a total of 20 hours and earned a total of $240. Drag and drop numbers in the boxes to create an equation which models this situation if x = the number of hours he spent babysitting and y = the number of hours he spent mowing lawns last week.

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
