    it costs $75.00 for a service call from shearin heating and air conditioning company. the charge for labor is $60.00 . how many full hours can they work on my air conditioning unit and still stay within my budget of $300.00 for repairs and service?

    Our Cost Function is C(h), where h is the number of labor hours. We have:
    C(h) = Variable Cost * Hours + Fixed Cost
    C(h) = 60h + 75

    Set C(h) = $300
    60h + 75 = 300

    Running this problem in the search engine, we get h = 3.75.
