Algebraic expression
Casey's Landscaping Co: $20 + (20h) with h being the number of hours of service.
Isabell's Lawn Care: $10 + (22h) with h again being the number of hours of service.
15 hours of work (Casey) = $20 + (20x15) =
$20 + ($300) = $320.
15 hours of work (Isabell) = $10 + (22x15) =
$10 + ($330) = $340. Therefore Casey's Landscaping Co price of $320 is a better deal for 15 hours as opposed to Isabell's $340.
3 hours of work:
Casey: = $20 + (20x3) = $20 + ($60) = $80.
Isabell: = $10 + (22x3) = $10 + ($66) = $76. Therefore Isabell's Lawn Care price of $76 is a better deal for 15 hours as opposed to Casey's $80.
