Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Find the cost per hour
The graph shows the relationship between hours used and cost. We are given two points on the graph: (1, 27) and (2, 42). This means that when 1 hour is used, the cost is $27, and when 2 hours are used, the cost is $42.
Step 2: Calculate the difference in cost and hours
The difference in cost between 2 hours and 1 hour is \(42 - 27 = 15\).
The difference in hours is \(2 - 1 = 1\).
Step 3: Calculate the cost per hour
The cost per hour is the difference in cost divided by the difference in hours: \(\frac{15}{1} = 15\).
