Answer:

C = 50x + 25

Explanation:

The $50 charge can be interpreted as the slope, as it varies based on the amount of time the service takes. The $25 can be interpreted as the y-intercept, as you'll get charged $25 no matter how long the service takes. Thus, we can plug these values into the slope-intercept form equation.

$y = mx + b\\C = 50x + 25$
