    A. The expression 32ℎ represents the total charge for Sherry if she uses Funky Flooring.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given,

    In Funky Flooring,

    Charges for inspection and install flooring = $ 32 per hour,

    If the flooring is hired for h hours,

    Then total charges of flooring = 32h dollars,

    Option 'A' is correct.

    Now, in Fantastic Flooring,

    Fixed charge for inspection = 125,

    Installing charges = $ 18.00 per hours,

    Hence, the total charges of flooring = 125 + 18h

    Thus, option 'B' is not correct.

    ∵ He will choose only one flooring.

    So, the total charges is either from Funky flooring or Fanatics flooring.

    ∴ option 'C' is not correct.

    Now, for 9 hours,

    Charges from funky flooring = 32 (9) = $ 288

    Charges from fanatics flooring = 125 + 18 (9) = $ 287

    288 > 287

    Hence, option 'D' is not correct.
