Answer 2

Answer: B.
`3.5v+7.5<5v`

Explanation:

Let v represents the number of video games.

The monthly cost to rent video games depends on the number of video games, v rented.

Given : Renting video games from Store A costs $3.50 per game plus a monthly fee of $7.50.

Then total monthly cost for renting games from Store A =
`7.50+3.50v`

Renting video games from Store B costs $5.00 per game with no monthly fee.

Then total monthly cost for renting games from Store B =
`5v`

The inequality represents the situation when the monthly cost at Store A is less than the monthly cost at Store B will be :-

`7.50+3.5v<5v`
