C= total cost; V=number videos rented
PART A:
C=$12.75+$0.75V ANSWER Equation.
PART B:
C=$12.75+$0.75V Subtract $12.75 from each side.
C-$12.75=$0.75V Divide each side by $0.75.
(C-$12.75)/$0.75=V Plug in number
($105.75-$12.75)/$0.75=V
($93)/$0.75=V
124=V ANSWER: Susan rented 124 videos while she was a member of the club.
