Answers
GPT 3.5
The statement "Charles charges a diagnostic fee of $60 plus $12 per hour spent on computer repairs" can be represented by the equation y = 12x + 60, where x represents the number of hours spent on computer repairs and y represents the total cost.
The statement "Paul charges a diagnostic fee of $40 plus $16 per hour spent on computer repairs" can be represented by the equation y = 16x + 40.
Thus, the system of equations representing the situation is:
y = 12x + 60
y = 16x + 40
The statement "Paul charges a diagnostic fee of $40 plus $16 per hour spent on computer repairs" can be represented by the equation y = 16x + 40.
Thus, the system of equations representing the situation is:
y = 12x + 60
y = 16x + 40
