Answer: a. $55 + $20h

b. $175

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a school rent a dunking booth for a carnival and that the company charges $55 to rent the booth plus $20 for each hour of rental.

a. Write an expression for the cost of renting the dunking booth for h hours.

This will be:

= $55 + $20h

b. Use your expression to find the cost of 6 hours.

The equation to solve this will be:

= $55 + $20h

= $55 + $20(6)

= $55 + $120

= $175
