Respuesta :

49 + 15 + 326 should be your answer....

Answer:

18 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gebe rents a piano for $49 per month.

He earns $15 per hour for giving piano lessons to students.

Let his earning for x hour = 15x

15x + 49 = 316

15x = 316 - 49

15x = 267

x = [tex]\frac{267}{15}[/tex]

x = 17.8 hours ≈ 18 hours

Gebe must give 18 hours lessons to earn a profit of $326.
