On average, 45 cars pass through a particular toll booth each hour. At 8 am, 75 cars have passed through the toll booth.



Which equation represents the total number of cars, 𝑻, that have passed through the toll booth at 𝒉 (hours after 𝟖 a.m.)?

a. t=45h+75

b. t=45(h+75

c. t=75h+45)

d. t=75(h+45)

Answer 1

The equation that represents the total number of cars, T, that have passed through the toll booth at h (hours after 8 a.m.) is:

t = 45h + 75

So, the correct option is a. t = 45h + 75
