The cost, is dollars, for and appliance repair at a certain company is 1.2p + 20h, where p is the wholesale price of the parts, in dollars, and h is the number of hours it takes to repair the appliance. What is the cost of repairing an appliance if the wholesale price of the parts is $15 and it takes 2 hours to repair it?
(A) $12
(B) $18
(C) $20
(D) $40
(E) $58
Here
p = wholesale price of the part = $15
h = number of hours it takes to repair the appliance = 2 hr.
Therefore cost of reparing the appliance = 1.2p + h =(1.2 * 15) + 20 = $58
