Madea hires a caterer to provide food for her birthday. The caterer charges her $225 for food and supplies and $25 per hour to serve during the party.
Madea ends up paying $350 total. How many hours did the caterer serve?
Use the equation 25x+225=350 to solve.

The caterer served 5 hours. x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

25x + 225 = 350

We must use inverse operations to get x

25x + 225 - 225 = 350 - 225

25x = 125

25x ÷ 25 = 125 ÷ 25

x = 5

the caterer served 5 hours.
