Question

It’s almost time for Prom! You want to book a limo and are trying to figure out how much it will cost. The limo company charges a flat rate of $200 plus $350 for each hour of use.
5. Write an equation that represents the total cost, y, of renting a limo for x hours.
Answer: ______

6. Using your equation from number 5, how much would it cost to rent the limo for 4 hours?
Answer: _____

Answer 1

$2200

for 4 hours, I think, I hope I helped.

Answer 2

Answer:

5. y = 200 + 350x

6. $ 1600

Step-by-step explanation:

5. Here, x represents the number of hours and y represents the total cost for x hours,

There is a charges of $200 plus $350 for each hour of use.

So, the fixed cost = $ 200,

∵ Additional cost for one hour = $ 350,

Then, the additional cost for x hours = 350x dollars,

Thus, the total cost = ( 200 + 350x ) dollars,

⇒ y = 200 + 350x

Which is the required equation.

6. for 4 hours,

x = 4,

Thus, the cost for 4 hours,

y = 200 + 350(4) = 200 + 1400 = $ 1600
