Cost (C) = (Hourly Rate x Time) + House Call Fee
In this case, the hourly rate is $26 and the house call fee is $38. So the equation becomes:
C = (26 * Time) + 38
Where C represents the cost of the repair and Time represents the number of hours spent on the repair.
Let's say the repair person spent 3 hours on the repair, you can substitute it into the equation to find the cost:
C = (26 * 3) + 38
C = 78 + 38
C = 116
Therefore, the cost of the repair would be $116.
