Carlos is planning to landscape his backyard. He can either hire a company to install grass or buy the materials and do it himself. The company charges a fixed fee of $200 plus $5 per square meter of grass installed. If Carlos decides to do it himself, he buys the grass at $3 per square meter but also incurs a one-time tool rental fee of $50.

  • Let x = the number of square meters of grass Carlos needs.
  • Let C = the total cost of either doing the work himself or hiring the company (in dollars).
