Answer:

y=60+25h+0.3r

Explanation:

let y be the total charges

given that the hour is h

and the cost for raw material is r

therefore

1. The first hour of service call = $60

2. For each additional hour= 25h

3. 30% over the cost of the materials.= 30/100*r=0.3r

total charges

y=60+25h+0.3r

therefore the expression is

y=60+25h+0.3r
