if he works 32 hrs at the movie theater = $288 > $251

Answer:

The answer is choice C (19 hours at the movie theater and 12 hours at the bakery).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question didn't list the multiple choice answers given. Both of the choices A and B equal to too many hours worked. (A would be 33 hours, B would equal 35 hours, question states cannot work more than 32 hours a week)

Let m stand for Movie theater hours, b for bakery hours worked.

Equation would be:  9m + 7b ≥ 251

   9(19) + 7(12) ≥ 251

171 + 84 = 255; which is ≥ 251
