Question

The family arcade center charges an entry fee of $11 plus an additional $1 per game played. Which of the following functions describes the average expense for a player per game played, in terms of x, the number of games played?

C(X) = $11x+$1/x
C(X) = $11x+$1x/14
C(X) = $11x+$1x/x
C(X) = $12/x

Answer 1

You probably made an error while writing the options.
The correct ans is:


`C(x)= (11+x)/(x)`

Entry Fee for the player is $11.
Player is charged $1 for each game played. So for x games played, the charges will be $ x.

So, total charges for x games played will be:
T(x) = 11 + x

Average Cost per game played = Total Cost/Total Games played
So,


`C(x)= (11+x)/(x)`
