Question

Monroe Reservoir, it cost $25 per hour plus $100 deposit to rent a pontoon boat. a. Write an equation that describes the cost c, for renting a pontoon boat at the lake for two hours b. If you end up spending $325, for how many hours did you rent the boat for

Answer 1

C = 25h + 100 ......renting for 2 hrs...sub in 2 for h
c = 25(2) + 100
c = 50 + 100
c = 150 <===

if u spend 325...so sub in 325 for c
325 = 25h + 100
325 - 100 = 25h
225 = 25h
225/25 = h
9 = h <=== it was rented for 9 hrs

Answer 2

25(2)+100
The bot was rented for 14 hours if she ended up spending $325
