a = hours worked by the first mechanic
b = hours worked by the second mechanic.
since the first mechanic charges $55 per hour, then for "a" hours that'd be a total of 55*a or 55a, likewise, for the second mechanic that'd be a total charge of 80*b or 80b.
we know all hours combined are 15, so then a + b = 15.
we also know that all charges combined are $950, so 55a + 80b = 950.

Answer:
D 6
Step-by-step explanation:
note that (f ○ g)(x) = f(g(x))
To evaluate f(g(x)) substitute x = g(x) into f(x)
f(g(x)) = f(4x³ + 1)
= 3(4x³ + 1)²
= 3(16
+ 8x³ + 1)
= 48
+ 24x³ + 3 ← polynomial of degree 6
The degree of a polynomial is the value of the largest exponent, that is 6
