HELP EXPLAIN PLEASE! Fun Lanes Bowling charges a fee of $4 to use their shoes and $6 for each game played. Salim wants to figure out how much it will cost him to bowl. Write an equation representing this problem. Let x be the number of games bowled, and let y be the total cost.

4+6x=y

You have your y intercept of 4. That is your guaranteed cost. Then you have 6 for each consecutive game.... 6x.
