To rent a boat, you pay for an initial fee plus. John rented a boat for 3 hours and paid $41. Jessica rented a boat for 6 hours and paid $77.

The intial fee is $5

The equation to represent this is: y=12x+5

12 is the cost per hour    x=hours  y=total cost  

Step-by-step explanation:

77-41=36

36/3=12

12*6=72

77-72=5

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

25x^2 + 90x + 84

discussion:

mn(x) = m(n(x)) = m( 5x + 9) =

(5x + 9)^2 + 3 =>

25x^2 + 90x + 9^2 + 3 =

25x^2 + 90x + 84                 (as 9^2 = 9*9 = 81)

which is the second choice
