What is an equation?
An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.
Given the cost of consulting is $50, while the cost of labour is $150 per hour.
A.) An equation to represent the total cost of a job that takes "x" hours.
Total cost = $50 + ($150 × x)
B.) Total cost is the labour works for 40 hours,
Total cost = $50 + ($150 × 40) = $6,050
C.) As found above the cost of working 40 hours is $6,050, therefore, the amount of $5,000 will not be enough.
