Answer 1

Let R be the amount (in dollars) that Carrie pays every time she rents a movie. Now, if the last month Carrie rented 6 movies, her total bill for the month was $32, and since she pays a monthly fee of $8 we can set the following equation:

`8+6R=32.`

Subtracting 8 from the above equation we get:

`\begin{gathered} 8+6R-8=32-8, \\ 6R=24. \end{gathered}`

Dividing the above equation by 6 we get:

`\begin{gathered} (6R)/(6)=(24)/(6), \\ R=4. \end{gathered}`

Therefore Carry pays $4 every time she rents a movie.

Answer:

The monthly fee for Carrie to stream movies is $8. Carry also pays $4 every time she rents a movie.
