Question

Lorenzo wants to know how much it will cost to rent tables and chairs for an event. He investigates renting tables and chairs and decides to use two different companies. Company A $4 per table (seats 4) and a $25 one-time delivery and pickup fee Company B $2 per chair and a $15 one-time delivery and pickup fee Each table seats 4 people, so Lorenzo needs to rent 4 chairs for every table. x = number of tables Cost to rent tables from Company A: f(x) = 4x + 25 Cost to rent chairs from Company B: g(x) = 2(4x) + 15 Which function represents the total cost for Lorenzo to rent x number of tables and the chairs he needs to go with them? 12x 12x2 + 40 12x + 40 8x + 40

Answer 1

Answer:

C: 12x + 40

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the Cost to rent tables from Company A is;

f(x) = 4x + 25

Also, we are told that the Cost to rent tables from Company B is;

g(x) = 2(4x) + 15

Thus, total cost for Lorenzo to rent x number of tables and the chairs he needs is;

Total = f(x) + g(x)

Total = 4x + 25 + 2(4x) + 15

Total = 4x + 25 + 8x + 15

Total = 12x + 40
