seth and karen are college students who take on different jobs for income. seth needs $750 for expenses and savings each month; karen needs $700.

seth has a part-time job where he earns $7.50 per hour. he also mows lawns and earns $15 per lawn that he mows. his monthly earnings can be expressed with the equation 7.50x + 15y = 750, where x is the number of hours seth works and y is the number of lawns he mows.

karen has a part-time job babysitting, where she earns $6 per hour. she also walks dogs and earns $4 per dog that she walks. her monthly earnings can be expressed with the equation 6x + 4y = 700, where x is the number of hours karen works and y is the number of dogs she walks.

part a: each partner now has an equation, function, and graph that represent the combinations of activities resulting in the income needed for each student. compare these items and answer the following questions:
which student, seth or karen, has the higher slope when the graphs of their earnings are compared? how can you tell?

part b: whose graph, seth's or karen's, has a greater y-intercept? what does that mean for this person?

part c: if both students work 80 hours for the month, is the number of lawns seth has to mow greater than or less than the number of dogs karen has to walk? justify your answer.

part d: karen begins charging $8 per hour for babysitting and seth begins earning $8 per hour. how does this change affect their graphs if everything else remains the same?

p. s. those who answer wrong answers on purpose will be reported. (has happened too many times by the same person. you know who you are.) this is very important, so the faster i get the correct answer for each part, the better. you for those who ! i will be in your debt!

Agroup of students want to create a garden. they do not know the exact measurements but they propose using a variable to represent the length and width of the garden. the length of the garden is 10 feet longer than double the width. use a single variable to write algebraic expressions for both the length and width of the garden. write an algebraic expression for the area of the garden. use mathematical terms to describe this expression.
