SOLUTION TO QUESTION 1

Step1:Define the parameters


\begin{gathered} \text{let cost be c} \\ \text{and } \\ \text{the time taken be t} \end{gathered}

Step2: Write the given information


\begin{gathered} \text{ \$95 for flight } \\ \text{and } \\ \text{ \$35 per hour of work } \end{gathered}

Then, the total cost will be


\text{ C=price for the flight+35}*\text{ number of hours he work}

Step3: Write out the linear function in terms of t


\begin{gathered} C(t)=95+35(t) \\ C(t)=95+35t \end{gathered}

Therefore the linear function for the cost for the electrician to come and work will be

C(t)=95+35t
