Answer 1

First, we need to calculate the total cost of the services Nick provided.

Leaf removal: $165.00
Aeration: $90.00
Flower planting (3 flower beds): $40.00 x 3 = $120.00

Total cost = $165.00 + $90.00 + $120.00 = $375.00

Next, we need to calculate the total number of hours Nick spent on the job, which is given as 4.2 hours.

Finally, we divide the total cost by the total number of hours to find Nick's hourly earnings:

Hourly earnings = Total cost / Total hours
Hourly earnings = $375.00 / 4.2 = $89.29

Therefore, Nick's hourly earnings for the job is $89.29.

Answer 3

To find the change in Devon's account each month after paying for the service, we need to divide the total amount paid by the number of months.

Total amount paid: $936
Number of months: 8

Change in account each month = Total amount paid / Number of months
Change in account each month = $936 / 8 = $117

Therefore, the change in Devon's account each month after paying for the service is $117.
