Question 1095560: A plumber charges $64 per hour for labor and x dollars for replacement parts. The total biol $ 284 and includes 3 hours of labor. How much does the plumber charge for the replacement parts?

Answer by algebrahouse.com(1659)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = dollars for replacement parts

64(3) + x = 284 {64 per hour, for 3 hours, plus x for replacement parts, equals 284}
192 + x = 284 {multiplied}
x = 92 {subtracted 192 from each side}

$92 for replacement parts
