you sure
I apologize for the confusion. Let's compare the costs for playing 2 games at each course:
- Mini-golf Course A:
The cost for 2 games at Course A is not explicitly given in the table. However, we can find it by finding the cost for playing 3 games (16.50 dollars) and subtracting the cost for playing 1 game.
Cost for 2 games at Course A = (Cost for 3 games - Cost for 1 game) = (16.50 - 5) = 11.50 dollars.
- Mini-golf Course B:
The equation y = 4x + 5 models the cost to play x games at Course B.
Cost for 2 games at Course B = 4(2) + 5 = 13 dollars.
Since 11.50 dollars is less than 13 dollars, the correct statement is:
A) The cost to play 2 games at each course is the same.
