Question

Mrs. Scott brings her car to a service station for repair. Her bill shows a $215 charge for parts and a charge for 3 1/2 hours of labor. The total bill is $495. Write an equation to find the charge x for one hour of labor.

Answer 1

(495-215)÷3.5=x

X=80

It's 80$ per hour for labor

X=80

Hour = h

Total charge = t

h×80+215=t
