Question

A dune buggy company rents dune buggies at the beach. They charge an initial fee of $30 plus

$10 for each hour the buggy is rented. Let x represent the number of hours and y represent the
total cost of the rental.
1. If Clint rents a dune buggy for 5 hours, how much should he expect to pay?

Answer 1

$80

Explanation:

10x + 30 = y

He wants to rent it for 5 hours, so we replace x with 5.

10(5) + 30 = 80

He should expect to pay $80 for the rental.
