A business owner wants to have the front window of her store painted and is considering two artists for the job. Tiana has quoted a flat rate of $292 for the job. Denise's quote is $39 per
hour, plus $19 to cover the cost of materials. Depending on how long it takes Denise to paint
the window, these two could end up charging the same amount. How long would Denise have
to take? How much would it cost?

Denise would have to take seven hours to charge the same amount of money as tiana. furthermore, it would cost the same amount as that is what the prompt is asking for.

to get the
i subtracted $19 from $292 to eliminate the
fee element because if you were to divide
$292 by $39 without the step, the hours would be incorrect and the price would be greater.

after subtracting i got $273

from there i divided $273 by $39 and got 7 (the amount of hours it would take)
