A daycare center charges $300 per month for preschool and $3.50 per hour every hour after preschool. The function c = 300 + 3.50h can be used to represent the total cost c of monthly preschool and childcare, where h is the number of hours spent in childcare after preschool. If the one month charges for one child totaly $637.75, what was the total number of hours the child spent in childcare after preschool? *

The total number of hours the child spent in childcare after preschool was 96.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the preschool, in function of the number of hours that the child spent there, is given by the following equation:

If the one month charges for one child totaly $637.75, what was the total number of hours the child spent in childcare after preschool?

This is h when c(h) = 637.75. So

The total number of hours the child spent in childcare after preschool was 96.5.
