Question

Marty joined Movies R U for a $12 fee and an agreement to pay $2.50 per movie he rents. The equation for his total cost is y = 2.50x + 12. What is his total cost if he rents 25 movies?

Answer 1

$74.50

Explanation:

Using their given equation, y = 2.50x + 12, we can substitute 25 for x in order to solve it.

y = 2.50x + 12

y = 2.50(25) + 12

y = 62.50 + 12

y = 74.50

Therefore, Marty pays $74.50 for the total price if he rents 25 movies.
