PROBLEM: Juan hires an electrician. Juan pays a one-time fee of $30. Juan also pays $45 for each hour the electrician works. A. Write a function that can be used to find the total charge, c, Juan will pay when the electrician works, h, hours. Y=mx+b B. How much will Juan pay if it takes the electrician 6 1/2 hours to complete the job? (Vou should have 9 answers in question 2

A: C=45h+30

B: C=$322.50

Step-by-step explanation:

A: We'll start with the equation for the total charge. Juan is saying he will pay a one time fee of $30, meaning there is 30 dollars added to what ever the hourly wage is. This can be represented by the +30. Now if "h" represents the variable for which the hourly wage will be calculated, and he pays $45 dollars per hour this will be represented as 45h. As an example if I pay you 2 dollars per hour using the same variable "h", this would be represented as 2h. So if you worked for two hours you would get 4 dollars, this is proven by the fact the 2(2) (remeber im replacing the "h" with the hours you worked) obviously 2 times 2 is 4 proving my point. This information will give you the equation you see above.

B: Onto solving for how much Juan will pay. Now you say youre supposed to have 9 answer but this can't be true. All you need to do is plug the hours given into "h" and solve the equation. It should look something like:

C=45h+30

C=45(6.5)+30

Im using a decimal because it should be clear 1/2=0.5

C= 292.5+30

45x6.5 always go with PEMDAS, we are multiplying first. Then add 292.5 plus 30

This results in the answer of:

C=$322.50
