You are correct to notice an issue with the equation.

The original problem stated that the bus company charges $\text{R}30$ for every hour of the trip per person, and a flat rate of $\text{R}50$ .

Identify the correct hourly rate.
The hourly rate is $\text{R}30$ . This is the coefficient of $x$ (number of hours).
Identify the correct flat rate.
The flat rate is $\text{R}50$ . This is the constant term.
Construct the correct equation.
The cost $y$ is the sum of the hourly charge ( $30x$ ) and the flat rate (50).
$y = 30x + 50$
