C.
$90.29
D.
$27.27

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much he made without the supplies. To do this you would multiply $15.80 by the 7 hours he worked. This gives you 110.60. Then subtract 110.60 from the 190.89 the job cost. You would then overall get 80.29 for the supplies
