Complete question :
Anand needs to hire a plumber. He's considering a plumber that charges an initial fee of $65 along with an
hourly rate of $28. The plumber only charges for a whole number of hours. Anand would like to spend no more than $250, and he wonders how many hours of work he can afford.
Let H represent the whole number of hours that the plumber works.
1) Which inequality describes this scenario?
Choose 1 answer:
A. 28 + 65H < 250
B. 28 + 65H > 250
C. 65 + 28H < 250
D. 65 +28H > 250
2) What is the largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford?
Answer:
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford = 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following information :
Initial hourly rate = $65
Hourly rate = $28
Number of hours worked (whole number) = H
Maximum budgeted amount to spend = $250
Therefore ;
(Initial charge + total charge in hours) should not be more than $250
$65 + ($28*H) < $250
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford :
65 + 28H < 250
28H < 250 - 65
28H < 185
H < (185 / 28)
H < 6.61
Sinve H is a whole number, the number of hours he can afford is 6 hours
