A DJ charges $250 for 1 hour of work and charges $410 for 3 hours of work. Write an equation that models this situation. Let "x" represent the number of hours worked and "y" represent the cost to hire the DJ.

Question

Thank you for the help! I appreciate it.

Answer 1

I meant to say help instead of fall. Oops!

Answer 2

*instead of galp.

I hate autocorrect.

Answer 3

He charges an extra $160 for 2 hours, or $80/hr after the first hour. So, for x hours (x>2),

y = 250 + 80x

Answer 4

Thank you so much, Steve!
