Mary’s yard is a mess. She needs to hire someone to prune her trees and shrubs. A landscaping service she calls quotes her a price of $15 consultation fee plus $8 an hour for the actual work. Mary’s neighbor has offered to help her out. She doesn’t charge a consultation fee, but does charge $10 an hour for her work.

 

Write two equations, one that describes the landscaping service charge and one that describes your neighbor’s charge. Let Cequal the charge as a function of h, the number of hours worked.

 

a.

C = 15 + 10h

C = 8h

 

b.

C = 10h + 8h

C = 15

 

c.

C = 15 + 8h

C = 10h

d.

C = 18h
C = 15

Respuesta :

The answer would be C

It would be C because 15 is the consultation fee, so it is 15 no matter how many hours are worked. Then it would be plus 8h because Mary has to pay 8 dollars per hour that is worked

Lastly, it 10h is because Mary's neighbor offers to work for 10 dollars per hour she has to work

Answer:

Please mark me brainliest and I hoped this helped!

She should ask her neighbor to help her.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use equations to help us figure out this answer.

8x + 15 = y

10x = y

If she has a 3-hour job, we can use 3 instead of x.

8(3) + 15 = y

24 + 15 = y

30 = y for the landscaping service

10(3) = y

30 = y for a neighbors help

It will cost her 9 dollars less, so she should go with her neighbor.
