Kyle types college reports for $2.15 per page. He also charges $5 to cover the cost of supplies. Write an expression for total earnings for typing a report of p pages. Then evaluate the expression for a 28-page report.

What variable do you want to use for the total earnings?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

Let the total earnings be y. We know there is a charge of 2.25 per page which basically means multiplication. Since we don't how many pages there are, we are going use p. So, it is y= 2.25p + 5. In order to evaluate, just plug in the 28 into the p of the equation.

Sorry, it should be y=2.15p + 5
