Answer

8x>10+4x for x=>3

Just two games.

for the third game you would have paid $24 in total

Explanation:

Given that

gamers charge $8

Discount Club charges $4 after a membership of $10

total for the Discount club is given by the expression

let x be the number of games rent

Y=10+4

So at the first rent, you will pay Discount Club

$14 and the second rent you would have spent

14+4= $18

and the third rent you would have spent

18+4= $22

the inequality is given as

for x=>3

8x>10+4x
