Question

A student babysits and charges a flat fee of $4.00 just for travel to the residence and then $6.00 per hour for the evening. a. Write an equation for the relationship between d, the amount of dollars the student can earn in an evening and h, the amount of hours the student babysits.

Answer 1

d = 4 + 6h

Explanation:

Given that :

Travel charge = $4 flat fee

Hourly charge = $6 per hour

Amount of dollar student can earn in an evening = d

Amount of hours spent babysitting = h

d = travel charge + (hourly charge * amount of hours)

d = $4 + ($6 * h)

d = 4 + 6h
