Question

To go bowling, it costs $2 to rent shoes and then $3.25 for each game bowled. Which of the following functions gives the total cost to bowl g games?

Answer 1

f(g) = 2 + 3.25g

Explanation:

This function would be the correct answer because you would want to keep the 2 (no matter how many games you play you will still have to pay the $2 for shoes) and then you would multiply $3.25 by how many games you play.

Answer 2

2+3.25g=y
G would be the independent variable, which means the total cost would depend on it since it depends on the number of games you bowl. Y could be any variable, such as T or C.
2+3.25g=y
