giving medal and becoming a fan for this question
Frank and Gertrude mow lawns for extra money over the summer. Frank's income is determined by f(x) = 5x + 15, where x is the number of hours. Gertrude's income is g(x) = 4x + 20. If Frank and Gertrude were to combine their efforts, their income would be h(x) = f(x) + g(x). Assume Frank works 4 hours. Create the function h(x) and indicate if Frank will make more money working alone or by teaming with Gertrude. h(x) = x + 5, work alone h(x) = x + 5, team with Gertrude h(x) = 9x + 35, work alone h(x) = 9x + 35, team with Gertrude
How much would Frank make if he works alone?
idk
What is the function that gives the amount Frank makes? f(x) or g(x)?
f(x)
How many hours did Frank work?
3?
@Mertsj
Read the problem and look for the number that is associated with the hours Frank works.

\[h(x) = f(x) + g(x) = 5x + 15 + 4x +20 = 9x + 35\]
