Let AA represent the amount Company A would charge for tt hours of landscaping, and let BB represent the amount Company B would charge for tt hours of landscaping.

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A:

Charge for an hour =$ 25

Charge for 't' hours = 25 *t = 25t

Total cost = Equipment fee + charge for t hours

  AA = 150 + 25t

Company B:

Charge for an hour =$ 35

Charge for 't' hours = 35 *t = 35t

Total cost = Equipment fee + charge for t hours

  BB = 100 + 35t

BB = AA

100 + 35t = 150 + 25t

Subtract 25t from both sides

100 + 35t - 25t = 150

           100 +  10t = 150

Subtract 100 from both sides

10t = 150 - 100

10t = 50

Divide both sides by 10

t = 50/10

t = 5
