Answer 5

Write an equation. Let the number of nights be x. The money you have to pay for every additional night you rent the movie is 1.25 dollars, so what is the amount of money you have to pay additionally to rent the movie for x nights?
Also, you have to add in the 1.50 dollar flat fee.
And all of that is equal to 4.
Write and solve the equation. :)

its 2 nights because you have to figure the first night is 1.50 + 1.25 which is equal to 2.75 and if she keeps it for a second night she will have to pay 1.50 + 1.25 + 1.25 which equals $4
