It costs $10 to rent a canoe and $5.50 to use the canoe for an hour. You have $21. Write an equation that represents the number h of hours you can rent the canoe.

Respuesta :

Answer:

21 = 10 + 5.5h

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost = initial cost + hourly cost

21 = 10 + hourly cost

hourly cost = 5.5 per hour, or 5.5 * h as we add 5.5 for each hour

21 = 10 + 5.5h

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$10 + $5.50h ≤ $21

Let h stand for the hours the canoe is rented.

Fixed cost = $10, regardless of h.

$5.50h for the cost of n hours of rental.

Total cost = $10 + $5.50h

The total cannot exceed $21, legally.  

So we should write:

$10 + $5.50h ≤ $21
