Which expression and value represent the total the instructor will charge a student for hours of lessons in a month
and the amount the instructor would charge a student for 15 hours of lessons in a month?
$20.25 -2; $15
$20.25 +x: $25.50
O $20.25 - $5.25x; $58.50
O $20.25 + $5.25x; $99

Answer 1

The answer should be D. $20.25+$5.25x; $99

Explanation:

y=mx+b

m=$5.25

x=15

b=$20.25

This gives us:

5.25x + 20.25

5.25(15)+20.25

78.75+20.25

y=99

Answer: 20.25 + 5.25x ; 99

Hope this helps!
