H E L P!!! ASAP :') ( im sorry i keep on asking questions im just bad at math, 20 pts!!1!)

The total cost for four people to bowl one game is $21. Each person paid $1.50 to rent their shoes, in addition to the cost of the game, c. Which of the following equations could be used to find the value of c?

4( c + 1.5) = 21
4( c + 6) = 21
4 c + 1.5 = 21
4 c - 6 = 21

Answer 1

4( c + $1.50 )

The question tells you that the total price for FOUR people is $21, and then ask about the cost PER PERSON, meaning that you need to figure out the cost of a singular person.
The question tells you that each person pays $1.50 and they also need to pay for a game, which they have given the value to be c.
So the you add those two cost together ($1.50 + c) and then multiple it by 4 as the question originally tells you that there are 4 players.

Answer 2

Answer: 4( c + 1.5) = 21

Explanation:

4( c + 1.5) = 21
