Painter a charges $376 plus $12 per and painter b charges $280 plus $15 per hour. in how many hours will they cost the same

32 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let after x hours the charges of A and B are same,

Given,

For painter A,

Fixed charges = $ 376,

Additional charges per hour = $ 12,

So, the total charges for x hours = ( 376 + 12x ) dollars

For painter B,

Fixed charges = $ 280,

Additional charges pet hour = $ 15,

So, the total charges for x hours = ( 280 + 15x ) dollars

Thus,

376 + 12x = 280 + 15x

12x - 15x = 280 - 376

-3x = -96

x = 32

Hence, for 32 hours their cost will be same.
