since we know the plumber charges $32 for one hour of work, if the plumber works

1 hour, that's 32(1)

2 hours........ 32(2)

3 hours.........32(3)

4hours...........32(4)

x hours...........32(x) => 32x.


the cost of materials is $46, so your total charge for getting the lizard out of the bathtub pipe is the hours rate plus the 46 bucks, namely 32x + 46, and incidentally we know that's $134.


\bf 32x+46=134\implies 32x=88\implies x=\cfrac{88}{32}\implies x=\cfrac{11}{4} \\[2em] x=2\frac{3}{4}\impliedby \textit{2 hours and 45 minutes}

To determine his gross pay, we need the amount of money he earns per hour and the rate of overtime per hour since he exceeded 40 hours of work. But since the rate for his overtime was not given. A general expression is what the most I can do. It is as follows:

Gross pay = 13.40(49) + overtime rate(9) 

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
