Tiffany works 30 hours per week between two part-time jobs: When she works as a waitress she receives $11.25 per hour and when she works as a math tutor she receives $16.50 per hour. Since she has only 30 hours each week that she can work, the more hours she spends at one job, the fewer number of hours she can work at the second job. a. If Tiffany worked a total of 30 hours last week and she worked 9 of these hours as a waitress, how much money did she make last week working at both jobs? 447.73 b. If Tiffany worked x hours as a waitress, represent how many hours she worked as a tutor in terms of x. 30-x c. Define a function f that determines the amount of money Tiffany makes for working for x hours as a waiter. 16.50x d. Define a function g that determines the amount of money Tiffany makes working as a tutor in terms of x, the number of hours Tiffany works as a waitress. 16.50n e. Define a function h that determines the total amount of money Tiffany makes each week (when working both jobs) in terms of the number of hours x she works as a waitress. h(n)=11.25n+16.50(30-x)
