Answer:

22 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For one month, Audrey has to pay $350 for her payment and $35 for gas, meaning that she will need to pay $385 per month.

$350 + $35 = $385

Audrey makes $17.50 an hour.  Set up an equality to find the amount of hours she must work to pay for her car payment and gas.

17.50x > 385

(17.50x)/17.50 > 385/17.50

x > 22

Audrey must work at least 22 hours to pay for her car payment and gas.
