Question

Ben is going bowing this weekend. It will cost $5 for the shoe rental plus $6 per game bowled. Which equation models the cost, c, for Ben to bowl g games?

Answer 1

Answer:

The required equation is modeled as :

c = 5 + 6·g

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of the shoe rental = $5

Cost of the per game bowled = $6

Let the total cost for the games played = $c

Let the number of games bowled be g

⇒ Cost of the games played = $ 6·g

Now, we need to model the equation for the cost, c, for Ben to bowl g games.

Thus, The required equation is modeled as :

c = 5 + 6·g

Answer 2

Answer:

C(g) = 5 + 6g

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

C be the cost function for Ben

and  

g be the number of games

As the shoe rental is paid for all the games, it will be added only once. The variable on which the cost will be dependent is g. The number of games will directly affect the cost function. Here g is independent variable.

So, mathematically writing,

C(g) = 5 + 6g
