Problema Solution

john's Tree Service charges $45 to come to your property and they charge an hourly rate for work time. I also know that they worked at my friend's property for 12 hours and the total cost was $825.

Answer provided by our tutors

So the initial cost is 45 dollars, right? And each hour, they charge "x" amount of dollars. Let's make an equation.


45+12x=825.

45 dollars plus 12 hours times the amount charged per hour equals the total of 825. So

Subtract 45 from both sides.

12x=780.

Divide by 12 on both sides.

x=65.


So every hour John's Tree Service charges you 65 dollars.
