Answer:

We need to work 6 hours to get 59.95$.

Explanation:

We need to get 59.95$ and the paid for each hour is 10.00$, hence:

[tex] \frac{10.00$}{h}*x = 59.95$ [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{59.95$}{10.00$/h} = 5.995 h = 6 h [/tex]

Therefore, we need to work 6 hours to get 59.95$.

I hope it helps you!
