For each babysitting job, Tamar charges $6 for bus fare plus $8 per hour. She only accepts babysitting jobs if the total charge is at least $30. What is the minimum number of hours for a babysitting job she would accept? 2 and one-half hours
3 hours
4 hours
4 and one-half hours

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Tamar did the job for x hours,

Since, her charges for 1 hour = $ 8,

⇒  Her charge for x hours = 8x,

Also, the bus fare = $ 6,

hence, her total charge = Bus fare + Her charges for x hours

= 6 + 8x,

If the total charge is at least $30,

⇒ 6 + 8x ≥ 30

⇒ 8x ≥ 24

⇒ x ≥ 3

Thus, the minimum number of hours for a babysitting job she would accept = 3 hours

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?
