Question

Maura is going to hire a makeup artist for a fashion show and is comparing prices. Evelyn charges $19 as a booking fee and an additional $89 per hour. Brenda charges $87 per hour, plus a booking fee of $21. Depending on the length of the show, the cost could end up being the same for either artist. How long would the show be? What would the cost be?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Evelyn: Y=89x + 19

Brenda: Y=87x + 21

Punch in numbers for X until you get the same for both. Remember that X is hours and Y is total. the numbers with no letters is the fixed booking amount. cheers. Good luck :)
