Two mechanics worked on a car. the first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. together they charged a total of $ 2500 . what was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $ 205 per hour?

Let x and y be the rate per hour for Mechanic 1 and 2 respectively.

Then,
x+y=205 (1)
Additionally,
10x+15y = 2500 (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2;
Multiply (1) by 10 and subtract two from the result,
10x+10y = 2050
10x +15 y =2500

        -5 y = --450 => y = 450/5 = $90
Then,
x= 205-90 = $115

Therefore,
Mechanic 1 charged $115 per hour
Mechanic 2 charged $90 per hour

The answer is that the rate of change is $50 per 1 monthhope this ; )
