<span>(a) Create a chart of values and write an equation to find the total cost, C in terms of the number of days d.
C = 10d + 20
</span><span>(b) Use the equation you created in Part (a) to find the cost of renting a bike for 5 days.
</span>
C = 10d + 20
<span>C = 10(5) + 20= 50 + 20 = 70
$70 for 5 days

Laila=l
Tom=t
Dan=d
l=t+14
l=d-5
l+t+d=51
In terms of l:
d=l+5
t=l-14
So:
l+l+5+l-14=51
3l+5-14=51
3l-9=51
3l=60
l=20
d=25
t=6
Hope this helps :)
Bear in mind that words like "are" or "is" is replaced by an equal "=" sign in the equation.
more than or increased by denotes addition
twice the number denotes two times the number
times, simply means multiply.
Let x be the unknown number in the equations.
12 birds are 3 more than twice the number of birds Rhonda saw yesterday.
12 = 2x + 3
Negative 6 times the sum of a number and 4 is 2
-6(x+4) = 2
Four time a number increased by 3 is -89
4x + 3 = -89
Hope this helps!
