To find Nick's hourly earnings, we need to calculate the total amount of money Deborah paid him for the job and divide it by the number of hours he worked.
According to the hint, each service has a flat fee listed in the chart:
- Removing leaves: $375.00
- Aerating the lawn: $375.00
- Planting 3 flower beds: $375.00
The total amount of money Deborah paid Nick for the job is $375.00 + $375.00 + $375.00 = $1125.00
Since Nick worked for 4.2 hours, his hourly earnings would be $1125.00 / 4.2 hours = $267.86
Therefore, the correct answer is $89.29.
u sure?
Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let me recalculate the hourly earnings for the job correctly.
The total amount of money Deborah paid Nick for the job is $375.00 + $375.00 + $375.00 = $1125.00
Since Nick worked for 4.2 hours, his hourly earnings would be $1125.00 / 4.2 hours = $267.86
Therefore, the correct answer is $267.86.
positive?
Apologies once again for the incorrect response. Let's recalculate the hourly earnings correctly.
The total amount of money Deborah paid Nick for the job is $375.00 + $375.00 + $375.00 = $1125.00
Since Nick worked for 4.2 hours, his hourly earnings would be $1125.00 / 4.2 hours = $267.86
Therefore, the correct answer is $267.86.
$267.86 is not a option
Apologies for the confusion. Let's recalculate the hourly earnings again.
The total amount of money Deborah paid Nick for the job is $375.00 + $375.00 + $375.00 = $1125.00.
Nick worked for 4.2 hours, so to calculate his hourly earnings, we divide the total payment by the number of hours: $1125.00 / 4.2 hours = $267.86 (rounded to the nearest cent).
As $267.86 is not one of the options provided, it seems there may be a mistake in the options. Please double-check with the given options or provide further information if available.

To find the change in Devon's account each month after paying for the service, we need to divide the total payments made over 8 months by the number of months.
Total payments made over 8 months: $936
Number of months: 8
Change in Devon's account each month: $936 / 8 months = $117
Therefore, the correct answer is $117.
