An electrician charges $40 per hour for service calls up to eight hours, but increases this rate by 50% for additional hours. The electrician will not work more than twelve hours per service call and also charges a $25 trip charge. The graph provides a visual for customers. If the electrician doubles the normal hourly rate, and still increases the rate by 50% for additional hours, how will the graph change? A) The y-intercept will be (0, 50), the slopes of the line segments will 40 and 60, and the range will be [50, 1170]. B) The y-intercept will be (0, 25), the slopes of the line segments will 80 and 120, and the range will be [25 1170]. C) The y-intercept will be (0, 50), the slopes of the line segments will 80 and 120, and the range will be [50, 1145]. D) The y-intercept will be (0, 25), the slopes of the line segments will 80 and 120, and the range will be [25, 1145].
