Question 713869: Hill'a Hogs repairs motorcycles. The repair shop charges for parts plus $55 per hour for labor. If Tim's total bill was $565 and the cost of parts was $235, for how many hours of labor was Tim charged? Answer by BGutridge(15) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x represent the number of hours worked. Then the equation is 55x+235=565, which simplifies to 55x=330. 330/55=6, so the number of hours of labor that was charged is 6.
