Question

The Slow Fix auto shop charges $28 for parts and $48 per hour of labor. The We Work Cheaper auto shop charges $59 for parts and $44.90 per hour of labor. For how many hours will the total cost the same for both auto shops?

Answer 1

Answer: 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slow fix auto charge $28 for parts and $48 per hour of labor

We work charge $59 for parts and $44.90 per hour of labor

Suppose both works for x hours

Cost of Slow fix= $\ (28+48x)$

Cost of We work= $\ (59+44.90x)$

When these costs are the same

$28+48x=59+44.90x\\3.1x=31\\x=10\ hours$
