Question

9th grade math thanks

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

For plumber A : y = 100 + 30x

For plumber B :

Let the total charge be y

Initial charge be x

Hourly rate be za

For total price = 105 in 1hr

105 = x + a ........(1)

For 160 total charge in 2hrs

160 = x + 2a .........(2)

Substracting (1) from (2)

160 - 105 = 2a - a

55 = a

Substituting a = 55 in (1)

105 = x + a

105 = x + 55

x = 105 - 55

x = 50

:- equation for total charge is

y = 50 + 55a

Answer 2

Plumber A has greater initial fee

Explanation:

Plumber B:

Hourly charge = 160 - 105 = $55

Initial charge = 105 - 55 = $50

Equation: y = 50 + 55x
