Question

Laura rents a movie for a flat fee of $2.00 plus an additional $0.50 for each night she keeps the movie. Choose the cost function that represents this scenario if x equals the number of nights Laura has the movie. (2 points) c(x) = 2.00x + 0.50 c(x) = 2.00 + 0.50x c(x) = 2.50x c(x) = (2.00 + 0.50)x

Answer 1

c(x) = 2.00 + 0.50x would be the best answer. Think about it. If you pay $2.00 for something and each night she keeps the movie after that payment she has to pay $0.50, this equation would work the best. X represents the number of nights she has kept the movie. Keep on working hard!
