A video game store allows customers to rent games for 4.75 each. Customers can also buy a membership for $54 annually, and video
games would only cost $2.50 each. Write and solve an equation to find the number of video games a customer would have to rent in a year in order for the two options to be equal... equation:
solutionx(games):
Let x represent number of video games. We have been given that a video game store allows customers to rent games for $4.75 each. So the cost of renting x video games would be 4.75x.
We are also told that customers can also buys a membership for $54 annually, and video games would only cost $2.50 each. The cost of renting x video games after membership would be 2.50x + 54
To find the number of video-games that will cost same for both options, we will equate both expressions as:
