Answer:

The correct answer is - 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Price of parts: $200

Price of labor: $75/hour

Total cost: $425

Solution:

Let x = x of hours work done on the car

The inequality can be represented as:

425 = 75x + 200

Solving this inequality, we find that

225 =75x

or

x = 3

Thus, It means that the mechanic will take at least 3 hrs to work on his car.
