An electrician charges a set fee of $50 for every house call and then charges an additional hourly rate. One day, the electrician earned a total of $400 for a 5 hour job. Write an equation for C, C, in terms of t, t, representing the total cost of the electrician's services if the electrician spends tt hours at the house working.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the electrician spends t hours at the house working.

Amount charged for every house call by electrician = $50

The electrician earned a total of $400 for a 5 hour job.

Also, C denotes total cost of the electrician's services.

So, the equation for C in terms of t is given below.
