Respuesta :

Let W = number of credit hours at Westside

Since the total credit hours is 17, the number of credit hours at Pinewood is :

[tex]17-W[/tex]

To find the expression for the combined total dollar amount for both class.

Multiply each hours by the corresponding fees.

The expression will be :

[tex]\begin{gathered} 98(W)+115(17-W) \\ =98W+1955-115W \\ =1955-17W \end{gathered}[/tex]

The correct answer is :
