Question

A coffeehouse charges a flat rate,r, for each hour customer wants to use the internet. Enter an equation to express the total cost,c,to use the internet at the coffeehouse for t hours.

Answer 1

Answer:

c=rt is the equation to express the total cost c to use the internet at the coffeehouse for t hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A coffeehouse charges a flat rate, r for each hour customer wants to use the internet. we have to write the equation to express the total cost c to use the internet at the coffeehouse for t hours.

Charges of internet per hour = r

Total hour = t hours

Hence, Cost = (Charges per hour)(Total hours)

                     =$r\times t$

∴ c=rt

which is the linear equation to express the total cost c to use the internet at the coffeehouse for t hours.
