Happy Paws charges $19.00 plus $2.50 per hour to keep a dog during the day. Woof Watchers charges $14.00 plus $3.75 per hour. Complete the equation and solve it to find for how many hours the total cost of the services is equal. Use the variable h to represent the number of hours.
$19.00 plus $2.50 = $21.50. $14.00 plus $3.75 = $17.75 add $3.75 to $17.75 once to get 21.50 2 hours at Woof Watchers is the same as 1 hour at Happy Paws. <Hope that helped>
