Question

The expression 5n + 2 can be used to find the total cost in dollars of bowling where n is the number of games bowled and 2 represents the cost of shoe rental. How much will it cost Vincent to bowl 3 games?

Answer 1

Vincent will pay $17 to bowl 3 games

Explanation:

If n=number of games and Vincent plays 3 games, it means n=3

2 in the equation is a constant , hence remains the same.

Find the total cost when you plug in 3 in the place of n in the equation;

Total cost = (5*3)+2

=15+2

=$17

Therefore, Vincent will pay $17 to bowl 3 games
