Angela earns x dollars an hour. On Friday, she worked 6 hours. On Saturday, she worked 8 hours. Which expression shows how much she earned both days ?

A6x + 8
B8x x 6x
C(6 + 8)x

D.6 + 8 / x

Verified Answer :

Each hour she works, she earns \(x\) dollars.

The first day, she worked 6 hours, so she'd earn \(6x\) dollars.
The second day, she worked 8, so she'd earn \(8x\).
Together, she'd have earned \(6x+8x\) dollars.
 You could add the number of hours she worked first and then multiply by \(x\) to get the same result. This would look like \((6+8)x\).
