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=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=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=4t+60
; Rob’s Rentals: C=6t+40

To model the situation, we need to write the equations based on the information given:

  1. Parties 'R Us charges:

    • Delivery fee: $60
    • Cost per table: $4
    • Therefore, the total cost \( C \) can be expressed as: \[ C = 60 + 4t \]

  2. Rob’s Rentals charges:

    • Delivery fee: $40
    • Cost per table: $6
    • Therefore, the total cost \( C \) can be expressed as: \[ C = 40 + 6t \]

Thus, the correct pair of linear equations that model this situation is:

  • 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.
