Answer: d) 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the required number of hours for which the total fee charged by the companies the same.

Given: Peppy Pets charges a flat fee of $15 plus $3 per hour .

So Total charge = 15+3x  ( in dollars)

Happy Hounds charges a flat fee of $21 plus $1 per hour.

So Total charge = 21+x  ( in dollars)

When the total charge for both companies are the same, then

15+3x=21+x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3x-x=21-15\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2x=6\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=3

Hence, the correct option is d) 3 hours.
