Question

Amelia paid $225 to have her television fixed. The repair

shop charged $35 per hour for repairs and $85 for parts.
Write an equation that can be used to find how many
hours, h, it took to repair Amelia's television.

Answer 1

35h + 85 = 225

Explanation:

Since the shop charges $35 per hour, multiply h by 35 like this: 35h

$85 is already added on top of that, so add 85 to it like this: 35h + 85

All of this has to equal 225 since Amelia paid $225

35h + 85 = 225
