Question

13. Max charges $3.50 per hour when he mows lawns, plus $6.00 for transportation expenses. Which function rule represents the amount y Max charges to mow lawns for x hours? (1 point)

y = 9.50x
y = 6.00x + 3.50
(1 pt) y = 3.50x + 6.00
(0 pts) y = 2.5x


Can someone please explain this???

Answer 1

Ok so you are charging $3.50 for every hour you work and on top of that you are charging $6.00 for the transportation expenses. So the correct answer would be "y=3.50x+6.00" because x would be the amount of hours you work and y is the income you make.
