Answer:

Cost of staying hotel with fixed charge of 50 and $6 for each day stay

where d is number of days of stay

M is total money charged by hotel.

Explanation:

We have to describe a situation to fit into the given model.

model is M = 50 + 6d

it consist of two part

constant part 50

and variable part 6d which depends on value of d,

Let take M as money

d as days

in hotel, hotel service charge is fixed at 50

and for each day stay 6$ is charged.

Thus,

total money charged by hotel will be equal to sum of

fixed part 50

$6d for staying d days in the hotel

which can be modeled by given equation

M = 50 + 6d
