Sagot :

10+(2x)

10+(2x6)

10+12

22

It would cost $22 for a new customer to rent 6 movies.

  • Let the number of movies be n.
  • Let the cost be C.

Given the following data:

  • Cost of rental card = $10
  • Additional charges = $2
  • Number of movies = 6 movies

First of all, we would write a linear equation for the word sentence.

[tex]C = 10 + 2n[/tex]

Substituting the value of n, we have:

[tex]C = 10 + 2(6)\\\\C = 10 + 12[/tex]

C = $22.

Therefore, it would cost $22 for a new customer to rent 6 movies.
