Answer:

Total amount charged by Happy Paws = 22 + 4.50h

Total amount charged by Woof Watchers =  11 + 5.75h

3.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount charged by Happy Paws = 22 + 4.50h

Total amount charged by Woof Watchers =  11 + 5.75h

22 + 4.50h =  11 + 5.75h

Collect like terms

22 + 11 = 4.5h + 5.75h

33 = 10.25h

Solve for h

33/10.25 = h

h = 3.22
