To represent Colin's total cost algebraically, we can use the equation:
y = mx + b
where:
- y represents the total cost
- x represents the number of hours
- m represents the hourly fee (slope)
- b represents the flat fee (y-intercept)
Since the slope is the hourly fee and it is not represented in the given information, we cannot determine the exact equation without knowing both the hourly fee and the flat fee.
