8.25money x 8hours
Answer:
$95 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of charges is the sum of the cost of labor and the cost of parts. The cost of labor is the product of hours (5) and the cost per hour (x). Then the equation for total cost is ...
total cost = parts cost + hours cost
651 = 176 + 5x
475 = 5x . . . . . . . subtract 176
95 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
The cost of labor per hour is $95.
Let James be x years old
Joe = 10 + x
After 8 years
18 + x = 3(x)
18 + x = 3x
18 = 2x
x = 9
Joe is 19
James is 9
