a plumber charges $50 for every house call and an additional $70 for each hour of work for one house call yesterday the plumber earned $435 which equation can be solved to find the number of hours the plumber word on the house call

5.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since every house has an initial charge of $50, we can begin with that

($50)

Then, let's define h as the number of hours. We know every hour is $70, although the hours is yet unknown so that can be

($70 * h) or simply ($70h)

Now, we know the total should end up to be $435, so after PEMDAS the equation will be

($70h + $50 = $435).

We subtract 50 from both sides so now we have $70h = $385.

Now we divide both sides by 70, giving us h = 5.5. Hope it helped!

the solution is the point

step-by-step explanation:

we have

> equation a

> equation b

adds equation a and equation b

substitute the value of x in equation b to find the value of y

the solution is the point
