Question

To rent a bicycle, a bike shop charges a deposit plus an hourly rate. Martin can determine how much he will have

Answer 1

The answer is c

let’s say he rents it for 2 hours,

t= hours, so t=2

20 is the deposit and since t is multiplied by 8,

8(2) + 20

Answer 2

Hello there!

Answer: c) the hourly rate for renting the bicycle

The reason why answer choice "c) the hourly rate for renting the bicycle" would be the correct answer because 8 represents the hourly rate of the bike.

A coefficient is a number that that is multiplicative. In other words, it's a number that has a variable next to it, in which makes it change when we know the value of the variable.

8 is right next to "t", in which t represents the amount of hours it was rented for.

What this means is that the number 8 represents the cost of the bike per hour.

I hope this helps!
