2 answers:
Let us first make expressions for each electrician.
Electrician 1:
Service call fee charged by first electrician =$50
Per hour labor charges =$25
let us say he worked for x hours.
Total cost = 50 +25x ...............(1)
Electrician 2:
Service call fee charged by second electrician =$35
Per hour labor charges =$27.50
let us say he worked for x hours.
Total cost = 35 +27.50 x.............. (2)
Since total cost is same for x hours, so equating equations (1) and (2)
dividing both sides by x
x = 6
Answer : A job would take 6 hours if the total cost for each electrician is the same.
