Constant: A value that doesn't change. Instead, it's a fixed value.
Variable: A symbol (usually a letter) standing in for an unknown numerical value in an equation.
Term: Either a single number or variable, or numbers and variables multiplied together. (Terms are separated by + or − signs, or sometimes by divide.)

Coefficient: A number used to multiply a variable.
Answer:
7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the total charges be y and the number of hours be x
Company A charges
$60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour.
so
y=60+15x----------1
Company B charges
$25 reservation fee plus another $20 per hour
y=25+20x------------2
Step two:
equate the 2 expressions above we have
60+15x=25+20x
collect like terms
60-25=20x-15x
35=5x
divide both sides by 5
x= 35/5
x= 7 hours
It's quite simple when you break it down
20/45 let's divide by 5
4/9
we can't divide anymore, no common denominator. The answer is 4/9
