well, the plumber charges 52.50 per hour plus a service charge of 75. so what you are going to do is multiply 52.50 times 4.5 to get the total cost of the hours worked, then just add the $75 service charge and you have the answer! :)

52.50(4.5) + 75= Total money owed :)

Since, plumber charges 52.5/ hour
therefore, 
charge for five hours = 5 * 52.50 =262.50 Dollars
Total charge of the plumber = charge for five hours + service charge 
                                          = 262.50 + 75 
                                          = $337.50
