A plumber charges a $70 flat rate for all home repairs. His hourly rate is $15 per half hour. How much would a 2 hour and 26 m

Gnesinka [82]

The plumber's 2 hour and 26 min plumbing bill cost is $73

What is the plumber's per minute rate?

The plumber's per minute rate is the per half-hour rate divided by 30 minutes since the plumber charges $15 for every 30-minute job

per-minute rate=$15/30

per-minute rate=$0.50

Now, let us convert 2hours and 26 minutes to minutes, in other words, every 1 hour is 60 minutes, the two hours equal 120 minutes plus the 26 minutes gives a total of 146 minutes

Total minutes=120 min+26 min

total minutes=146 minutes

Total plumbing bill cost for 146 minutes is $0.50, the per-minute rate multiplied by the number of minutes the plumber needs to work in this case

2 hour and 26 min plumbing bill cost=146*$0.50

2 hour and 26 min plumbing bill cost=$73

Rashid [163]

Answer:

John work as a security guard job 27 hours and as a landscaper 33 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

John works two jobs.

As a security guard he earns $8.50 per hour and as a landscaper he earns $14 per hour.

One week John worked a total of 60 hours and earned $691.50.

Now, to find hours he work at each job.

Let the job of security guard be $x$ hours.

And the job of landscaper be $y$ hours.

So, the total hours John worked in a week:

$x+y=60.$

⇒ $y=60-x.$ ............( 1 )

Now, the money earned by John in a week:

$8.50x+14y=691.50$

Putting the equation ( 1 ) in the place of $y$ :

⇒ $8.50x+14(60-x)=691.50$

⇒ $8.50x+840-14x=691.50$

Moving variables on one side and the other we get:

⇒ $840-691.50=14 x-8.50x$

⇒ $148.50=5.50x$

Dividing both sides by 5.50 we get:

⇒ $27=x$

As a security guard job he worked 27 hours.

Putting the value of in $x$ equation ( 1 ) we get:

$y=60-27$

⇒ $y=33.$

As a landscaper he worked 33 hours.

Therefore, John work as a security guard job 27 hours and as a landscaper 33 hours.
