Answer:

It takes 6 hours for both to reach an equal paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to form an expressions in terms of x where x determine the number of hours :

Option 1,

$(30 + 9x)

Option 2,

$(14x)

Next, you have to compare it since they want to find out how many hours they work until they reach the same amount :

30 + 9x = 14x

30 = 14x - 9x

30 = 5x

5x = 30

x = 30÷5

x = 6
