The Royal Flush, a plumbing service, charges $65 for a service call (just to come to the house) plus $30 per hour to do the repair job. The Leaky Faucet, another plurbing service, charges $35 for a service call plus $45 per hour to do the repair job. How many hours would a job have to take for the bills of both repair services to be the same?​

Two hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The Royal Flush:

$65 + $30(per hour) = $95(for one hour)

$95 + $30 = $125(for two hours

The Leaky Faucet:

$35 + $45(per hour) = $80(for one hour)

$80 + $45 = $125(for two hours)

Therefore, it would take two hours for both of the repair services to have the same total.

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
