PLEASE HELP ASAP!! Ben worked 6 hours at x dollars per hour. Julie worked 9 hours and earned twice as much as Ben per hour. Phil worked 16 hours and earned 3 dollars an hour less than Julie. Choose the expression that is correctly simplified and best represents their total wages. A. 56x – 48 B. 40x – 48 C. 31x – 3 D. 40x – 3

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ben worked 6 hours at x dollars per hour. That is,

Ben earns = 6x

Julie worked 9 hours and earned twice as much as Ben per hour. That is,

Julie earns = 9 × 2x = 18x

Phil worked 16 hours and earned 3 dollars an hour less than Julie

That is,

Phil earns = 16 × ( 2x - 3 )

= 32x - 48

Total wages = 6x + 18x + 32x - 48

Total wages = 56x - 48

Option A is therefore the best option which is the answer to the question.
