Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find out how much Carlos would make for 17 hours of work, we can set up a proportion:

Rate of pay for 5 hours = $65
Rate of pay for 17 hours = x

(65 / 5) = (x / 17)

Cross-multiplying, we get:

5x = 65 * 17

5x = 1105

Dividing both sides by 5, we find:

x = 1105 / 5

x = 221

Therefore, Carlos would make $221 for 17 hours of work.
