Taylor needs to repair her car but cannot spend more than $260 for the repairs. The part needed for the repair will cost $80 and the labor will cost an additional $30 per hour. What is the maximum amount of hours the mechanic can work on the car without going over Taylor's budget?

Respuesta :

Parrain

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor cannot spend over $260.

Subtract the cost of the part needed for the repair:

= 260 - 80

= $180

$180 is left for fixing the car after buying the part.

As the labor costs $30 and now she cannot exceed $180 for labor, the total number of hours the mechanic can work is:

= 180 / 30

= 6 hours
