Question

4. An attorney charges $250 for a

consultation fee plus $100 per hour of
service. How many hours did he work in
order for his total bill to be $3500?

Answer 1

The attorney worked for 32.5 hours in order for his total bill to be $3,500.

Explanation:

Let's set up an equation with some variables:

`h` = hours of service

`T` = total bill

`T=100h+250`

Plugging in our given values, we get:

`3500=100h+250`

And solving for
`h`, the hours the attorney worked, we get:

`h=32.5`
