For renting tables, Parties ‘R Us charges, C , a $60 delivery fee and $4 per table, t . Rob’s Rentals charges, C , a $40 delivery fee and $6 per table, t . Write the pair of linear equations that model this situation.(1 point)

Responses

Parties ‘R Us: C=4t+40; Rob’s Rentals: C=6t+60
Parties ‘R Us: upper C equals 4 t plus 40 ; Rob’s Rentals: upper C equals 6 t plus 60

Parties ‘R Us: C=60t+6; Rob’s Rentals: C=40t+4
Parties ‘R Us: upper C equals 60 t plus 6 ; Rob’s Rentals: upper C equals 40 t plus 4

Parties ‘R Us: C=60t+4; Rob’s Rentals: C=40t+6
Parties ‘R Us: upper C equals 60 t plus 4 ; Rob’s Rentals: upper C equals 40 t plus 6

Parties ‘R Us: C=4t+60; Rob’s Rentals: C=6t+40

To model the situation of renting tables from Parties 'R Us and Rob's Rentals with the given fees, we need to create equations based on the delivery fees and the charges per table.

  1. Parties 'R Us charges a $60 delivery fee and $4 per table. Therefore, the equation can be modeled as: \[ C = 4t + 60 \]

  2. Rob's Rentals charges a $40 delivery fee and $6 per table. Therefore, the equation can be modeled as: \[ C = 6t + 40 \]

Putting these two equations together, we get the pair of linear equations:

  • Parties ‘R Us: \( C = 4t + 60 \)
  • Rob’s Rentals: \( C = 6t + 40 \)

So the correct response is: Parties ‘R Us: C=4t+60; Rob’s Rentals: C=6t+40.
