Answer:
C) C(x) = 5 +0.25x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
C(x) ---> the total cost monthly
x ---> is the number of hours in a month
we know that
he linear equation in slope intercept form is given by
[tex]C(x)=mx+b[/tex]
where
m is the slope or unit rate
b is the y-intercept or initial value
In this problem we have
The slope is equal to
[tex]m=\$0.25\ per\ hour[/tex]
The initial value or y-intercept is equal to
[tex]b=\$5.00[/tex]
substitute
[tex]C(x)=0.25x+5.00[/tex]
