Answer:

B.

Explanation:

To determine the price of hiring CleanSweep for 1 hour, we can use this equation:

  • 70 ÷ 2 = 35
  • 210 ÷ 6 = 35

Therefore, CleanSweep charges $35 every hour.

To find the price of hiring Acme Home, we can look at the equation it uses to calculate it fees.

  • y = 25x when y is the total price and x is the number of hours.

If this is true, Acme Home charges $25 every hour.

To find the cost of hiring each company for 3 hours, we can use these equations:

  • CleanSweep: 35x = y
  • Acme Home: 25x = y

Inserting 3 into the equations:

  • CleanSweep: 35 × 3 = 105
  • Acme Home: 25 × 3 = 75

To solve for the price difference, we can use this equation:

  • 105 - 75 = 30

So, if the customer decides to use Acme Home for a 3 hour cleaning service, it will cost $30 less than if they used CleanSweep.

Therefore, B is the correct answer.
