Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The plumber charges $65 to come to his house and $55 for every hour they work. If the plumber charges Jerald a total of $296, how many hours did the plumber work? Write and solve an equation to determine the number of hours worked by the plumber. A 55x − 65 = 296; x = 6.6 hours B 55x + 65 = 296; x = 4.2 hours C 65x − 55 = 296; x = 5.4 hours
