a) 20(x)=y

b) $120

Let x= number of hours

Let y= Cost of labor

20 will remain constant, what matters is how many hours are being worked. If it's $20 per hour then it's safe to assume 1 hour is 20 dollars worth of labor. Due to it being per hour you have to multiply the rate by however many hours worked to get your final cost.
