Respuesta :

Answer: 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slow fix auto charge $28 for parts and $48 per hour of labor

We work charge $59 for parts and $44.90 per hour of labor

Suppose both works for x hours

Cost of Slow fix= [tex]\$(28+48x)[/tex]

Cost of We work= [tex]\$(59+44.90x)[/tex]

When these costs are the same

[tex]28+48x=59+44.90x\\3.1x=31\\x=10\ hours[/tex]
