Question

An art school charges a materials fee in addition to a fee per class. The equation below represents the total cost of y after x classes.
y=40x- 25

How many dollars is the fee for one class?

Answer 1

Hi there!

To find the amount of money needed for one class, we need to plug 1 into the equation as x, since x represents the amount of classes.

y = 40(1) - 25
y = 40 - 25
y = 15

So, it would cost 15 dollars.

Hope this helps!
