Question

A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour of service. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the cost, C, after h hours of service.

Answer 1

Answer:

C = 25 + 50h

Step-by-step explanation:

cost for zero hours is $25, so that is the y-intercept of the graph.

each hours adds a cost of $50, so that is the gradient of the graph. These two values give us our equation in slope-intercept form.
