first 10 notebooks at Php 15 each, and every piece of notebook thereafter costs Php 20
C = 20(x-10) + 150
C = 20x -200 + 150
C = 20x - 50

For the further generations of students, who will read this post: 

    There is no any equation relevant to this problem - there is only function,
    relevant to it.

    The relevant function is not linear: it is piece-wise linear function,
    so you better ignore this post since it is worded incorrectly.
