Answer:

50x+200

Explanation:

Our constant term is the 200, because it's the upfront charge. Our coefficient is going to be 50, because 50 dollars are being charged each month.

Answer:

50x + 200

Explanation:

50 dollars each month (for x months) is 50x, and the initial cost is 200 (flat fee) which means that the expression is 50x+200
