Raul works 2 hours daily after school, Monday through Friday.
at x per hour = 2 (5days) x =10x
on Saturdays he works 8 hours at $2 more per hour than on week days.
at x+2 per hour = 8(x+2) = 8x + 16
If he makes $142 per week, how much does he make per hour on week days?
10x + 8x + 16 =142
18x = 126
x=7 dollars per hour
