Question

Henry's Moving Company charges an initial fee of $50 plus $20 per hour (h). The total cost

can be determined using the equation: t=56+20h

Which company would be cheaper if you were going to hire them for 10 hours?

Answer 1

See below. The equation is incorrect and information on the other company is not given.

Explanation:

The equation is not correct for the information given. It should be

t=50+20h not 56 (represents the $50 initial fee)

10 hours would be: t = 50 + 20(10)

t = $250

Compare $250 to the charge for the unknown company.
