Question

An appliance repair man charges you $75 per hour plus a $125 fee to drive to your home. Let y represent the total cost and x represent the number of hours he works.

Answer 1

125 + (x × 75) = y

Explanation:

If y represents the total cost, ant x represents the number of hours he works, we can use this equation:

x × 75 = y

But now we also need to add the fee of $125.

125 + (x × 75) = y

Therefore, your answer is 125 + (x × 75) = y.
