Answer:

The total charges if the plumber took 4 hours to complete the installation is $270.

Explanation:

Given : A plumber charges $55 per hour plus a $50 service charge. Kevin hired the plumber to install a new hot water heater.

To find : What are the total charges if the plumber took 4 hours to complete the installation?

Solution :

A plumber charges $55 per hour plus a $50 service charge.

i.e., The charge in 1 hour= $55

Extra service charge = $50

We have to find charge in 4 hours is

The charge in 4 hour =
55*4=220

Total charge = Charge in 4 hour+ Service charge

Total charge = $220 + $50

Total charge = $270

Therefore, The total charges if the plumber took 4 hours to complete the installation is $270.
