You plan to meet a friend at a local bowling alley on Sunday afternoon. Prior to bowling, you must pay an initial fee of $6.00 to rent shoes and will then pay $4.00 per game you play. Which equation (written in slope-intercept form) best models this scenario? Let y represent your total cost and x represent the number of games you play. Group of answer choices y = 4x + 6 y = 2x + 6 y = 6x + 4 y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Derive the linear equation

Let the number of games be x.

Let the total cost be y

So, if the rate of 1 game is $4

Then x games costs 4x

The total cost (y) is then calculated as:

y = Initial Fee + Cost of x games

Substitute values for initial fee and cost of x games

Rewrite as:

- 2 + 10x³ - 21x² + 19x - 4

step-by-step explanation:

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor

x²(- 2x² + 4x - 1) - 3x(- 2x² + 4x - 1) + 4(- 2x² + 4x - 1) ← distribute

= - 2 + 4x³ - x² + 6x³ - 12x² + 3x -8x² + 16x - 4

collect like terms

= - 2 + 10x³ - 21x² + 19x - 4 ← in standard form
