Question 1001225: an employment agency charges clients 250$ placement fee plus daily fee. If it places an employee for 12 days and the total fee is 742$, what is the daily fee

Call x the daily fee.
Then we have
250 + 12x = 742
Subtract the 250 from both sides and get
12x = 492
Now divide by 12 and get
x = $41 for the daily fee.
