Answer:

The first mechanic charges $105 per hour, and the second mechanic charges $90 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the rate of the first mechanic, and y is the rate of the second mechanic, then:

10x + 5y = 1500

x + y = 195

Solve the system of equations using elimination or substitution.  Using substitution:

10x + 5 (195 − x) = 1500

10x + 975 − 5x = 1500

5x = 525

x = 105

y = 195 − x

y = 90

The first mechanic charges $105 per hour, and the second mechanic charges $90 per hour.

To figure this out you can do 7.2/8.2, because you are trying to figure out how much of the total was used, and percentages would not be more than 100%. Doing this you would get ~.878. To convert this to a percent, you would just multiply it by 100, which would give you 87.8%. The question states to round to the nearest whole percent, leaving you with 88%. This means that 88% of the revenue was spent.

Hope that helped, don't be shy to comment on this if you have any questions about my explanation :)
