Nathalie Bush · Answer 1

Let's say they both do 5 chores.

Joey: 10 + (2 x 5 * No. Chores*) = 10 + 10 = $20

Julie: 5 + (3 x 5 * No. Chores*) = 5 + 15 = $20

Byron Noble · Answer 2

So if they each do 2 chores the expression of joey would be (10*2) + (2*2) = 24 and julie would be (5*2) + (3*2) = 16 so conclusion is that Joey makes more money than julie
