<u>Answer:</u>
$50 and $115
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that,
the sum of the two rates = $165 per hour
Let x and (165 - x) represent the $/hour of the 15hr and 5hr mechanics respectively.
Then combining their charges together to get:

Solving for x to get:



So the rate charged per hour by one mechanic is $50 and for the other mechanic =
$115.
Answer:
3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If pay is for full quarter hours, then the worker won't get paid for work intervals of less than 15 minutes.
Subtract 7:34 from 11:48: we get 3:14 hours. Because the 14 minutes is less than the 15 minutes of a full quarter hour, the worker won't get paid for those 14 minutes.
So the 'number of hours worked' is 3 hours.
Note that 3:14 would be 3 hours 14 minutes.
