Answer:
Rani can use the rented canoe for [tex]h\leq 2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Rani has at most $20 to spend on a canoe rental.
To rent a canoe $12.To use the canoe cost $3 an hour.
The number of hours is [tex]h.[/tex]
Now, to find [tex]h[/tex] the number of hours rani can use the rented canoe.
Total money Rani has at most to spend = $20.
The rent of a canoe = $12.
The cost of using canoe per hour = $3.
According to question:
Now, to find the number of hours rani can use the rented canoe:
[tex]3h+12\leq 20[/tex]
Subtracting both sides by 12 we get:
[tex]3h\leq 8[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 3 we get:
[tex]h\leq \frac{8}{3}[/tex]
[tex]h\leq 2\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Therefore, Rani can use the rented canoe for [tex]h\leq 2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hours.
