Happy Paws charges $19.00 plus $5.50 per hour to keep a dog during the day. Woof Watchers charges $14.00 plus $6.75 per hour. Complete the equation and solve it to find for how many hours the total cost of the services is equal. Use the variable h to represent the number of hours.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP I WOULD really appreciate it

Answer:

24.50H and 20.75H

Explanation:

19 + 5 = 24 + 0.50 = 24.50

14 + 6 = 20 + 0.75 = 20.75

then add "H" to the end of the equation
