The total cost c a painter charges to paint a house
depends on the number h of hours it takes to paint the
house. This situation can be represented by the function
rule c = 15h + 245. What is the total cost if the painter
works for 30.25 hours?
(1 point)
$245.00
$453.75
$572.75
$698.75
To find the total cost, we will substitute the given value of h into the function rule.
c = 15h + 245
c = 15(30.25) + 245
c = 453.75 + 245
c = 698.75
Therefore, the total cost will be $698.75.
