I need help with part b of this question.
A racquetball club charges $15 per month plus $6 for each hour of court time, and only whole numbers of hours of court time can be purchased. Let x be the number of hours of playing racquetball in a given month, and g(x) the total cost.
a. Write an equation for the cost per month of playing racquetball?
g(x) = 6x + 15
b. What is the value of g (14)?
What would the equation be for this.I know the answer is $99
notice on the left g(x) has become g(14)
so the x was replaced by 14
Now do the same thing on the right side of the equation, you will be amazed at the result.
thank you.
To find the value of g(14), we need to substitute 14 for x in the equation g(x) = 6x + 15.
So, the equation becomes: g(14) = 6(14) + 15.
Now, we can solve the equation:
g(14) = 6(14) + 15
g(14) = 84 + 15
g(14) = 99
Therefore, the value of g(14) is 99, which means the total cost for playing racquetball for 14 hours in a given month is $99.
Remember, whenever you see g(x), simply substitute the value of x into the equation and solve accordingly to find the value of g(x).
