Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 25% is off the price of the shirt, she bought the shirt at 75% of it's cost price. This difference between the full cost and the 75% is what she saved (i.e. 25% was the savings)

So, if the shirt costs x dollars:

$6 = 25% of x

= ( 25/100)*X = 0.25X

X = $6/0.25 = $6x4

X = $24

A service call to repair a washing machine costs $35 plus $20 per hour. Raphael ‘s machine took 2 hour to fix. How much did the
Lady bird [3.3K]

There is a mandatory fixed rate of $ 35 that Raphael will have to pay once the service call has been made. This fixed rate is the constant.

The per hour rate is $20. Suppose the machine took "x" hours to get fixed. Then the variable part of the repair cost will be 20x.

Thus, Repair Cost=Fixed Rate Cost+Variable Cost

Or, y=35+20x where y is the total repair cost. Thus, if Raphael ‘s machine took 2 hour to fix, the repair cost is:

y=35+20\times 2=35+40=75 dollars.

Therefore, the last option is the correct option.
