PLS HELP ME THIS IS DUE IN A FEW HOURS(i need a graph too pls)

Lacey pays $15 for each hour of golf lessons and $10 for equipment rental. If the lesson is more than 3 hours long, she only pays $5 for equipment rental. Is the total cost of Lacey's lesson a function of the number of hours scheduled?

Answer:

Yes, the total cost of Lacey lesson is a split function of hours scheduled

Explanation:

The amount Lacey pays for each hour of golf = $15

The amount Lacey pays for equipment rental = $10

The amount Lacy pays for equipment rental for a 3 hours long lesson = $5

Therefore, we have

Let C represent the total cost of Lacey lesson and let t represent the number of hours, we have;

C = $10 + t × $15 for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3

C = $5 + t × $15 for t > 3

Therefore, the total cost of Lacey lesson is a split function of hours scheduled
