Anne is taking her car in for repairs. the parts cost $28.50 and the repair man charges $50 an hour for labor. write an equation that models the cost of the repair based on the number of hours it takes to repair.

y=50x+28.50

Step-by-step explanation:

So, the variable Y is going to be the total cost, yeah?

28.50 is the total cost for the parts. The cost of the parts isn't going to go up or down at all, since you've already got the quote for them.

The only variable that's going to change is the amount of time the repairman works.

If he were to work let's say, 5 hours, that X would be a 5. The cost isn't going to be altered due to the cost of the parts: rather, the cost was altered due to how much time he worked. The X pretty much just represents the variable that's gonna change.

Hope I could help! :)
