The ice skating rink charges an hourly fee for skating and $3 to rent skates for the day. Gillian rented skates and skated for
3 hours and was charged $21. Which equation represents the cost, c(X), of ice skating as a function of x, the number of
hours of skating?

Respuesta :

Answer:  C(x) = 3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = mx + b

Given: when x = 3 hours, C(x) = $21 total charge, b = $3 skate rental

    21 = 3m + 3

    18 = 3m

     6 = m

Answer for any given x is: C(x) = 3x + 3
