Question

A rental company charges $15 plus $4 per hour to rent a bicycle. If Margie does not want to spend more than $27 for her rental, write and solve an inequality to find how many hours she can rent the bicycle and not spend more than $27. Interpret the solution.

Answer 1

15 + 4(h) = 27 
27 - 15 = 12
12/4 = 12 
Margie can rent the bicycle for 4 hours.
