You decide to get an estimate on the cost of repairs for the green food truck. The mechanic explains that the cost of the repairs comes out to be about $9,500. This price includes the cost of labor and the cost of the parts needed to do the repairs. If labor costs are 3/5 the cost of the parts, how much would you save by doing the repairs yourself and just purchasing the parts?

Answer:

you save labor : 3562.50

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to calculate for labor.

labor = 3/5 (parts)

labor + parts = $9500 (total costs)

3/5 parts + parts =9500

3/5 parts + 5/5 parts = 9500

8/5 parts=9500

5/8(8/5 parts) = 5/8 (9500)

‘parts = 5937.50

labor=3562.50 (3/5 x 5937.50)

total = 9500
