ANS A
Fixed cost for 1 hour = $200
Let, extra hours taken be = y
therefore, 200 + 150x = 1550
150x = 1350
x = 9
total hours = x +1 = 9+1 = 10
total fees = 1550
mean = total fees/ total hours ---> 1550/10 -----> $155per hour on average was charged.
Fixed cost for 1 hour = $200
Let, extra hours taken be = y
therefore, 200 + 150x = 1550
150x = 1350
x = 9
total hours = x +1 = 9+1 = 10
total fees = 1550
mean = total fees/ total hours ---> 1550/10 -----> $155per hour on average was charged.

Additional Hours taken by the client is 1550 - 200/150 = 9
Thus, Total time taken by the client is 9 + 1 = 10 HOurs....
So, Average charge per hour is 1550 / 10 = 155 , Answer must be (A)
