Question

Norman earns $8 for every dog he washes plus25% of the cost of the dog wash. Write an expression that represents the total amount of money Norman earns for one dog wash with a cost, c.

Answer 1

y = 0.25c + 8

Explanation:

Let's y represent the total cost

We know

25% = 0.25

So, we will write this in the slope-intercept form y= mx +b

So, we have m = 0.25, and b = 8, so our equation is

y = 0.25c + 8
