Meggan rented scaffolding in order to paint her two-story house. the cost of the scaffolding is $55.00 plus $5.75 per day (including the first day). meggan's total bill was $124.00. a) write an equation to solve for the total amount of days, d, meggan rented the scaffolding, based on the total cost, c, of the equipment. b) meggan's friend, carlos, rented the same equipment for 21 days. what was carlos' total bill? c) meggan then found another equipment rental outfit that would rent the same equipment for $35.00 plus $7.75 per day (including the first day). would this second company have been cheaper for meggan?

A.  124 = 55 + 5.75d.

d = 12.

B.  $175.75.

C.  Not cheaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

C = 55 + 5.75d

The cost  C was $124 so:

124 = 55 + 5.75d   ( is the required equation).

Solving this for d:

5.75d = 124 - 55 = 69

d = 69 / 5.75

d = 12 days.

B.

His total bill was 55 + 5.75 * 21

= $175.75.

C.

Cost for Megan if she had rented with the other company

=  35 + 7.75*12

= $128.

So this is not cheaper for Megan.

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
