We can create an equation to find the total cost of anyone who uses the car wash:

[tex]\sf y=5.09+0.60x[/tex]

Where 'y' is total cost and 'x' is the minutes they spent washing the car. Plug in what we know:

[tex]\sf y=5.09+0.60(9)[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]\sf y=5.09+5.40[/tex]

Add:

[tex]\sf y=\boxed{\sf \$10.49}[/tex]

So she was charged $10.49.
