Use the strategy for solving word problems, modeling the verbal conditions of the problem with a linear inequality. Parts for an automobile repair cost $175. The mechanic charges $34 per hour. If you receive an estimate for at least $226 and at most $294 for fixing the car, what is the time interval that the mechanic will be working on the job?

Let's note: x=the time interval that the mechanic will be working on the job
We write the inequalities modeling the problem: 226175+34x294
We solve the inequalities: 226175175+34x175294175
5134x119
513411034
1.5x3.5
