$5.50 an hour, and your job as a landscaper pays $6.00 an hour. You need to earn $250.00 per
week to cover your expenses. Which system of equations shows the various numbers of hours
you can work at each job? C is the number of hours worked as a clerk, while L is the number of
hours worked as a landscaper.
A.
C +L = 44
5.50C + 6L = 250
B.
C + L = 250
5.50C + 6L = 44
C.
5.50C + L = 44
C + 6L = 250
D.
C + L = 44
6C + 5.50L = 250
