question 50

Multiple Choice

Write the sentence as a two variable equation containing parentheses. Describe your variables so y depends on x. A DVD rental is $7 for two days and a penalty of $8 for each additional day.

• A) y = 7 for \(x \leq 2\) days; y = 7 +8(x - 2) for x > 2
• B) y = 7 for \(x \leq 2\) days; y = 7 +8(x - 1) for x > 1
• C) y = 7 for \(x \leq 2\) days; y = 7 +(8 - 1)x for x > 2.
• D) y = 7 for \(x \leq 2\) days; y = 8 +7(x - 2) for x > 2.
• E) y = 7 for \(x \leq 2\) days; y = 7 +8(x - 1) for x > 1.
