Question

A landscaper charges a fee of $150 to replace plants in a flower bed plus $0.75 per plant,p. Which of the following equation represents the total cost,t,replacing p plants?A. t=(150+0.75)pB. t=150p+0.75C. t=150p+0.75pD. t=150+0.75p

Answer 1

Since for each plant he charges 0.75 the total amount for p plants will be:

`0.75p`

To find the total we have to add the $150 fee. then the total cost is:

`t=150+0.75p`

therefore the answer is D.
