Question

The total cost for four people to bowl one game is $21. Each person paid $1.50 to rent their shoes, in addition to the cost of the game, c. Which of the following equations could be used to find the value of c?

4( c + 1.5) = 21
4( c + 6) = 21
4 c + 1.5 = 21
4 c - 6 = 21

Answer 1

4(c+1.5)=21

Explanation:

There are 4 people, that paid both the cost of the game each one of them paid $1.50 extra dollars for the shoes. B and D would be incorrect as it somehow brings 6 into this, when everyone everyone is paying their $1.50 alone. C would be incorrect as you are implying that one an additional $1.50 was paid, however we know that 4 different people paid $1.50, not just one person

Answer 2

Answer: 4(c+1.5)=21

4(c+1.5) the apprentices mean to multiply so multiplying 4(c+1.5) hope this helps have a great day :)
