Parts for a car repair cost $175. The mechanic charges $34 per hour. If you receive an estimate for at least $226 and at most $294 for fixing the car, what is the time interval that the mechanic will be working on the job?

remember at least and at most in the problem :)

Well...
Time*34=Price

Time1=(226-175)/34
Time2=(294-175)/34

So between 1.5 to 3.5 hrs
