The answer is 15x + 15
Each person needs to pay x dollars per hour, and also 3 dollars for a helmet
Let us convert this into a pseudo-expression:
1 person = (x dollars) x (y hours) + 3 dollars
Now, it says that there are 5 people, so we need to multiply both sides by 5
5 people = 5 x (x dollars) x (yhours) + 3 x 5 dollars
Furthermore, it says that each person wants to go horseback riding for 3 hours:
5 people = 5(x dollars) x (3 hours) + 15 dollars
Now, we just need to convert this into an expression
5 people = 5(x)(3) + 15
5 people = 15x+15
They want the expression for cost, so we just need to give them
15x + 15
You just need to plot them on a graph and see how many spaces are in between each. So if you plot (1,9) remember it's X, Y axis. Start from zero on the graph. Since it's positive go over 1 to the right and up 9. Then do the same for the rest. Then count how many units are between each point on the graph and find the one that is 5 units apart.
Answer:
239y
Step-by-step explanation:
956/4
You would put parentheses like this. 15-(3X4)+9=12
