Answer

$d =8/hour$

Work Step by Step

We begin by forming the equation of the form: $92=3d + 6d+ 20$ Join like terms together to get: $92= 9d + 20$ Isolate the variable $d$ by subtracting $20$ from both sides of the equation as shown below: $92 - 20 = 9d + 20 - 20$ Simplify to get: $72 = 9d$ Divide through by the coefficient of the variable $d$ as shown: $\frac{72}{9} = \frac{9}{9}d$ Simplify to get: $8 = d$ Rearranging we have: $d = 8$
