Sure, let's determine Ann's weekly salary step by step.
1. We know that Joe's weekly salary is [tex]$874.
2. We also know that Ann's weekly salary is $[/tex]543 less than twice Joe's weekly salary.
We can set up the relationship as follows:
[tex]\[ \text{Ann's salary} = 2 \times \text{Joe's salary} - 543 \][/tex]
Now, let's substitute Joe's salary into the equation:
[tex]\[ \text{Ann's salary} = 2 \times 874 - 543 \][/tex]
To find Ann's salary, we follow these steps:
1. Calculate twice Joe's salary:
[tex]\[ 2 \times 874 = 1748 \][/tex]
2. Subtract [tex]$543 from this amount:
\[ 1748 - 543 = 1205 \]
So, Ann's weekly salary is \$[/tex]1205.
This corresponds to option C:
C. $1,205
