To rent a bicycle, a bike shop charges a deposit plus an hourly rate. martin can determine how much he will have
to pay for a rental lasting t hours by using the expression 8t+ 20.
what does the coefficient 8 likely represent?
a) the length of item of the rental
b) insurance for the bicycle
c) the hourly rate for renting the bicycle
d) the deposit for the bicycle

The reason why answer choice "c) the hourly rate for renting the bicycle" would be the correct answer because 8 represents the hourly rate of the bike.

A coefficient is a number that that is multiplicative. In other words, it's a number that has a variable next to it, in which makes it change when we know the value of the variable.

8 is right next to "t", in which t represents the amount of hours it was rented for.

What this means is that the number 8 represents the cost of the bike per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

given expression is .

now we need to simplify the given expression .

we know that square root is equivalent to the power 1/2. so that means we can take half of the exponents to get the square root of given expression.

expanding that will give a very very large number so let's keep answer in exponent form.
