let's call x1: The rate per hour of the number one mechanic. X2: The rate per hour of mechanic number two. The first thing you should do is identify the system of equations that best describes the problem. In this case it is a system of 2 equations with two unknowns which when solved gives a total of x1 = 85 $ / h and x2 = 50 $ / h. Attached solution.
