A cable installer charges $40.00 per hour plus a $60.00 service charge. Your father's firm hires him to hook up his company's internet service. Find the total charges if it takes the cable installer 8.5 hours to complete the task.

Respuesta :

Set up the equation ... 60 + 40X = total charges... where X is the number of hours (8.5)

60 + 40(8.5) = ?
60 + 340 = ?
400 = total charges
so first set up an equation. x= total charges.
h= hour.
40h+60=x now plug in for h which is 8.5  and then solve for x
40(8.5) +60=x now 40*8.5=340+60=400=x this is how much he got payed after working for 8.5 hours. hope this helped you have an amazing day!!! :)
