Question

Steve provides lawn care services in his neighborhood. For each lawn he charges a flat fee of 6 dollars for clean up and 10 dollars per hour. Write an equation to represent the relationship the total charge, c, and the number of hours he works, h.

Answer 1

Answer:

$c(h) = 6 + 10h$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Flat fee = 6 dollars

Charges per hour = 10 dollars per hour

Let Steve work for h hours.

Then, we can write the total charge in the following manner:

Total charge =

$=\text{Flat fee} + (\text{Number of hours}\times \text{Charges per hour})$

Putting values, we get,

$c(h) = 6 + 10h$

is the required equation for total charges if Steve worked for h hours.
