While visiting Crimson Lake, Sally decided to go Kayaking. The rangers charge $8.50 per hour in addition to a $25.00 deposit to rent the kayak. If she rented the kayak from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., write and solve a linear equation to find the total cost to rent the kayak.

Respuesta :

The total cost to rent the Kayak will be $50.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the number of hours

Given

Charges per hour = $8.50

Renting Charges = $25.00

The renting charges are constant and will be used only once while the per hour charges will be calculated as number of hours change.

The function will be written as:

[tex]f(h) = 8.50h +25.00[/tex]

Here h is the number of hours.

From 11:30 AM to 02:30 PM makes three hours. So, to find the cost for 3 hours we have to put h = 3

[tex]f(h) = 8.5(3) + 25.00\\= 25.5+25.00\\= 50.5[/tex]

Hence,

The total cost to rent the Kayak will be $50.50
