Answer:

16.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The bicycle costs $240. Eva already has $42. She is making $12 per hour.

240 = 12x + 42

Solve for x to find out how many hours Eva needs to work to buy the bicycle.

240 = 12x + 42

240 - 42 = (12x + 42) - 42

198 = 12x

198/12 = (12x)/12

16.5 = x

Eva needs to work 16.5 hours to be able to buy the bikw.
