Juanita received two offers to join a video rental program. If she is enrolled in the program for 4 months, which program should she choose? First Program: 6 free video rentals for joining and 1 free video every month Second Program: 2 free video rentals for joining and 2 free videos per month Not enough information The first program The second program Either-She will get the same number of free videos from both --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OpenStudy (nikato):

Ok, again, u can set up the expression to see which one is the better deal

OpenStudy (nikato):

The first program: 6+1m

OpenStudy (nikato):

Becuz u automatically get 6 for joining and 1 every month u r still in. Can u try the second problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets see 2+1m

OpenStudy (nikato):

No it's 2+2m

OpenStudy (nikato):

2 for just joining and then 2 per month

OpenStudy (nikato):

Now plug 4 into each expression for m and see which gives u the bigger number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6+1(4)= 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2+2(4)=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did I do it right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer would be she could choose either program because both programs result in the same number of free videos. I think~ :) The first program -> 6 free videos + 1 free video every month, since she's joining for 4 months, it'll be 6+1(4) =10 videos. The second program -> 2 free videos + 2 free videos every month, and again, she is joining for 4 months, so it'll be 2 +2(4)= 10 videos. Hope this helped?! :)

OpenStudy (nikato):

Yup @alexisager1999 and now what does this tell u about the programs if both of them give u 10
