Answer:

C(x)=35x+50

Electrician's fee: $50.

Charges per hour: $35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of hours and y represent amount charged.

We have been given that an electrician charges $120 after 2 hours of work and $190 after 4 hours of work.

We can represent this information with two points as (2,120) and (4,190).

First of all, we will find slope using these points.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{190-120}{4-2}  

m=\frac{70}{2}  

m=35  

Now, we will slope-intercept form of equation y=mx+b to get our required equation as:

y=35x+b

Substitute coordinates of point (2,120) to find the y-intercept.

120=35(2)+b

120=70+b

120-70=70-70+b

50=b

Therefore, our required function would be C(x)=35x+50.

The electrician's fee would be $50 as it the initial amount or y-intercept.

The electrician charges $35 per hour as the slope of the line is 35.
