Answer:

$14

Explanation:

The total amount, C charged by an electrician for h hours of work is ;

C= 7h+125

If the electrician spends 2 more hours on Sanchez job than Ronald, then the amount Mrs Sanchez paid more than Ronald can be obtained thus:

From the equation :

C= 7h+125

The slope relation with number of hours worked gives the change in amount paid for differebt work hours. Since the intercept is constant, we ignore its value in this exercise.

For 2 more hours of work :

Additional amount = 7h ; h = 2

7h = 7 * 2 = 14

Hence, Mrs Sanchez pays $14 more.
