Hasan plans to choose a book from a section of the store where everything is 25%25% off. He writes the expression d−0.25dd-0.25d
to find the sale price of the book if the original price is dd dollars. Bella correctly writes another expression, 0.75d0.75d, that will also find the sale price of the book if the original price is dd dollars. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Hasan's and Bella's expressions mean.

Answer:
a. The linear function is given by,
y = 60x + 30 [y is in $ and x is in hour and x ≥ 0.5]
= 60 [for x < 0.5]
b. The total cost of the repair job is, $ 675 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the linear function describing garage charge( y in $) and no. of hours of repair job ( x in hour) be,
y = mx + c [for x ≥ 0.5] -----------(1)
where, m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept.
Now ,
m =
= 60 ----------------(2)
Now, putting the value of m and the point (x,y) = (0.5, 60) in (1), we get,
$
⇒ c = 30 ----------------- (3)
Hence, the linear function is given by,
y = 60x + 30 [y is in $ and x is in hour and x ≥ 0.5] ------------(4)
= 60 [for x < 0.5]
Now, putting
x = 4 hr 15 min
= hour
= 4.25 hour in (4), we get,
[in $]
= $ 285
So, the total cost of the repair job,
= $ (285 + 390)
= $ 675
