Answer: After working for 33 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] hours a week

Step-by-step explanation:

     Let us write equations to represent these two places. Let x be hours worked and y be money earned.

   Tim Hortons:

$200 + $5x = y

    McDonalds:

$300 + $2x = y

    Now, to find the conditions of which Tim Hortons is the better employer (on the basis of money earned) we must find the interval that Tim Hortons pays more. This can be found by setting up another equation, or by graphing. I have shown both. See attached for the graph.

$200 + $5x > $300 + $2x

$5x > $100 + $2x

$3x > $100

x > [tex]\frac{100}{3}[/tex]

x > 33.3334

    Tim Hortons is the better employer after an employee has worked for 33 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] hours a week.
