Answer 1

Answer:

3 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Plumber A.

Initial fee: $45

Per Hour: $60

Plumber B.

Full rate: $225

To determine the number of hours it will take for both plumbers to charge the same amount you have to start with $45.

Then add 60$ every hour.

$45 + $60 = $105

$105 + $60 = $165

$165 + $60 = $225

Therefore, it takes 3 hours for them to charge the same rate.
