Question 515417: write a problem that can be modeled by the equation 2x + 40 = 60. Then solve the equation and explain the solution in the context of the problem Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A tutor charges $40 plus $2/minute to do algebra homework.
Cost = 2*x + 40, where x is the number of minutes.
Sam's problem took 10 minutes to solve, so his cost was:
C = 2(10) + 40 = 60.
