If you are given two points, do you know how to find the equation of that line?
This is the same type of problem
You are given (3, 2700) and (5, 3100)
Cost = mt + c , where t is the number of hours
(compare this to y = mx + b)

slope = (3100-2700)/(5-3) = 200
Cost = 200t + c
now plug in one of the points, pick the "easier" one (3,2700)
2700 = 200(3) + c
c = 2100

so <b>cost = 200t + 2100</b>
Now plug in t = 1.5
