Hans wants to earn more than $51 trimming trees. He charges $7 per hour and pays $5 in equipment fees. What are the possible numbers of hours Hans could trim trees?

Respuesta :

Answer:

h ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hans charges $7 per hour and pays $5 in equipment fees.

$5 is fixed in this case. Let the possible number of hours be h.

According to question,

Atleast means less than equal to. So,

7h-5≤51

Add 5 to both sides.

7h+5-5 ≤ 51+5

7h ≤ 56

h ≤ 8

So, the number of hours be less than equal to 8.
