Answer:
The maximum number of hours the repairman estimated for the job is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
It's simple. First, all you have to do is start with the budget he gave you and subtract the fixed price.
225 - 35 - 40 = 150
Then, use the money you have left over (150) and divide by how much he pays per hour which equals 5.
150/30 = 5
Hope this helps! If you have any additional questions please don't hesitate to ask me or your teacher to be sure you master the subject. Stay safe and please mark brainliest! :)
C = 15x + 50
let c be $125 since c represents the cost
15x + 50 = 125
15x = 125 - 50
15x = $75
x = 75 ÷ 15
x = 5
If I understand your question correctly then it's simple all you have to do is use the numbers in the place of the b and c so the question would be what is 8-7 which equals 1
