A business consultant earns a flat fee for his work as well as an hourly fee. He charges his clients at a rate of $75 per hour. In one week, he billed a client $1,800 for 20 hours worked. Which of the following equations describes the pay for the consultant in terms of hours worked? A. y = 20x – 300 B. y = 20x + 300 C. y = 75x – 300 D. y = 75x + 300
The answer would be D. y=75x+300 because if you multiply 75 and 20 you would get 1500 and subtract 1800 for how much was paid and 1500 for the result of multiplying 75 and 20 Answer is D. y=75x+300
