A consultant charges $45 for each hour she works on a consultation, plus a flat $30 consulting fee. Which equation could be used to find how many hours of work are included in a $210 bill for a consultation?

Question

75h=210

45h+30=210

30h+45=210

45h-30=21
45h−30=210

Answer 1

To find how many hours of work are included in a $210 bill for a consultation, we can set up the equation based on the consultant's charges.

The consultant charges $45 per hour (h) for each hour of work, plus a flat fee of $30. Therefore, the total bill can be represented by the equation:

\[ 45h + 30 = 210 \]

This means that the correct equation from the options given is:

45h + 30 = 210
