Mikes plumbing charges 68 for coming to your house and 17 per hour for labor if I paid him 357, how many hours, h, was mike at m
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

b. 68 + 17h = 357

f. 17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Charges for coming to my house = $68 (this will be the constant of the equation)

Amount charged per hour labor = $17

hours = h

Total amount paid to Mike = 357

The equation that represents this situation can be expressed as:

68 + 17h = 357

Solve for h

68 + 17h - 68 = 357 - 68 (subtraction property of equality)

17h = 289

\frac{17h}{17} = \frac{289}{17} (division property of equality)

h = 17

Mike was in my house for 17 hours.
