Given the statement:
Tenting a movie from a redbox coats $1.29 each night, plus a one-time fee of $0.50.
Determine how much would it cost to rent a movie for 3 nights and 10 nights.
Solution:
In order to determine the cost for 3 nights we simply multiply 3 by 1.29 since it is the charge per night then add 0.50 to the product.
Cost for 3 nights= ($1.29)(3) + $0.50
Cost for 3 nights =$4.37
Apply the same equation for the cost for 10 nights
Cost for 10 nights = ($1.29)(10) + $0.50
Cost for 10 nights = $13.4
Final answer:
Cost for 3 nights =$4.37
Cost for 10 nights = $13.4
