Question

An attorney charges a fixed fee on $250 for an initial meeting and $150 per hour for all hours worked after that. Which function can be used to find how much he will charge after working x hours? If f(x) is that function, enter your answer in the form of f(x)=mx+b here:

Answer 1

f(x)=250+150x

Explanation:

step one:

Given that the fixed fee is $250

and the hourly fee is $150

let the number of hours be x

step two:

Also, let the function to represent the total cost be f(x)

we can represent the total cost in the form of f(x)=mx+b as

f(x)=250+150x
