Answer:
The saw was rented for 19 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
$40 fee for rentals plus $9 per day
Let x represent the number of days the saw is rented
y represent the charge to the user in dollars.
40 + 9x = y <em>(equation from the question)</em>
If total charge = $211
40 + 9x = 211
9x = 211 -40 <em>(grouping like terms)</em>
9x = 171<em> (Making x the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by 9)</em>
x = 19
