An electrician finished 4 jobs on Tuesday. The first three only cost the owner the $55

trip fee because they took very little time to complete. For the fourth job, the electrician

charged the trip fee plus four times his hourly rate. If the electrician received a total of $480

for the day, what is the hourly rate? Write an equation, then solve.
