It would be C

Labor earns $125 total, she gained $25 so it would be added to the final total. She also gained $20 for each appointment she completed, this would mean that the missing variable, represented by x would have to be multiplied by $20 and $20 only

So your final answer would be:

C. 20x + 25 = 125
