Answer: 5 hours  

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl paid $58 dollars in total and this included the fixed dollar fee and the variable amount of $9.

To find the number of hours, first deduct the fixed component:

= 58 - 13

= $45

$45 was spent as a result of hourly fee. The number of hours is therefore:

= Total hourly cost/ Cost per hour

= 45 / 9

= 5 hours
