Question 1012717: The total cost to install new bathroom floor tile depends on a number of variables:
Tile costs $p per square foot.
The bathroom measures A square feet.
Labor costs $L per hour.
The job takes N hours.
There is a flat-rate charge M for trim work around the edges of the floor.
Write an expression for the total cost in terms of these variables. Is this expression linear in L?

+C+=+L%2AN+%2B+p%2AA+%2B+M+
I don't think it's linear in +L+ since
everything else is a variable, too
