Question

Carolina is mowing lawns for a summer job. For every mowing job, she charges an initial fee plus \$6$6 for each hour of work. Her total fee for a 44-hour job, for instance, is \$32$32. Let F(t)F(t) denote Carolina's fee for a single job FF (measured in dollars) as a function of the number of hours tt it took her to complete it.

Answer 1

Answer:

$F(t)=6t+8$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent number of hours.

We have been given that Carolina charges $6 for each hour of work. So amount charged for t hours of work would be $6t$.

Let us find initial cost by subtracting charges for 4 hours from 32 as:

$\text{Initial cost}=32-4\times 6$

$\text{Initial cost}=32-24$

$\text{Initial cost}=8$

The total cost for t hours of work would be initial cost plus cost per hour: $6t+8$.

Our required function would be $F(t)=6t+8$.
