The rate charged by first mechanic is $45 per hour and the rate charged by second mechanic is $50 per hour.

Given mechanic first worked 20 hours and mechanic second worked 15 hours and they charged $1650. The sum of rates of first mechanic and second mechanic is $95 per hour.

let the rate charged by first mechanic be x .

let the rate charged by second mechanic be y.

According to question

x +y=95———–1

20x+15y=1650———-2

Multiply equation 1 by 20 and subtract equation 2 from 1.

20x+20y-20x-15y=1900-1650

5y=250

y=50

put the value of y=50 in 1 to get the value of x.

x +y=95

x+50=95

x=95-50

x=45

Hence the rate charged by first mechanic is $45 per hour and the rate charged by second mechanic is $50 per hour.
