If it is #3, when you plug in x=3 and then x=7 you will get $95 for 3 days and $175 for 7 days

Try it---does it work?

I don't know about the method offhand.

If I were a teacher and wanted you to get some practice in the use of equations and logical thinking and word problems, this would be an problem that I might have made up for you to solve.

If you tell me how you found this example, perhaps I could give you a more useful answer.
