The significance really depends on the context of the problem itself. Are you solving for x?
As a customer, the significance of the equation informs me that I will, no matter how long the repair takes, plan on forking over a $20 surcharge. After that, I should expect to pay 50 bucks an hour for the repair itself.

But the cost is $20 when x = 0. That is the surcharge in Jeff's answer.
