A plumbing company charges an hourly rate of $35 for labor. If the total charge for labor on a job came to $61.25, which of the following equations can be solved to find the
number of hours spent on the job? Let h represent the number of hours.
35h-61.25
35hs 61.25
61.25-35
.h(35+61.25) - O
None of the other answers are correct

First option: 35h = 61.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Knowing the plumbing company charges $35 per hour for labor, and being h the number of hours, then the total charge can be modeled by the equation:

C=35h

We know the total charge for labor on a job is C=$61.25, then:

35h = 61.25

Is the equation to be solved to find the number of hours spent on the job

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137
