Chandler Hull · Answer 1

3b+16

Step-by-step explanation:

b=# of books

3=One book

$16=beginning cost for book that month

Orlando Zavala · Answer 2

3b + 16

Each book costs 3 dollars and b is the number of books borrowed that one month. In that month, she also needs to pay 16 dollars for her membership so if you put all of it together, you get 3b + 16.
