Question

Sandy charges each family that she babysits a flat fee of $10 for the night and an extra $5 per child. Which a y = 10x + 5 b y = 5x + 10 c y = -5x + 10 d y = -10x -5

Answer 1

Answer: B. y = 5x + 10

Explanation:

Based on the scenario in the question, you didn't really say what you'll like to calculate but I guess you want to know the equation that can be used to represent the above information.

Let x = the number of children babysit

The amount charged by Sandy can then be written as:

y = 10 + 5(x)

y = 10 + 5x

y = 5x + 10

Therefore, the correct option is B.
