Step-by-step explanation:
The question is as following:
A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour of service write an equation to represent the cost of hiring this plumber.
what will be the cost for 8 hours of work? 10 hours of work?
=======================================================
A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour
<u>Cost = 25 + 50h</u>
Where h is the number of hours of service
8 hours of work: h = 8
Substitute with h = 8 at the equation of cost
<u>Cost = 25 + 50* 8 = $425</u>
10 hours of work: h = 10
Substitute with h = 10 at the equation of cost
<u>Cost = 25 + 50 * 10 = $525</u>
