Answer:

$139

Explanation:

to solve this you must put write the equations first

N + x = 97

N + 5x = 265

you can use elimination to find the answer

-4x = -168

x = 42

you must plug this in to find Ns amount

N + 42 = 97

N = 55

lastly you make the equation for a two hour job and then plug the values in

2x + N = ?

2(42) + 55 = ?

84 + 55 = ?

2 hours = 139
