A family decides to rent a boat for the day while on vacation. The boat's rental rate is $500 for the first two hours and $50 fo
r each additional half hour. Suppose the family can spend $700 for the boat. What inequality represents the number of hours for which they can rent the boat?
The family have 700$ they paid 500$ for the first two hours, so they still have 700 - 500 = 200$ if for every half hour 50$, and they have 200$, so you divide 200 by 50, which it's equal to 4 and since every 50$ give you half hour, which is equal to 30 minutes, so they will have 30 x 4 = 120 additional minutes 120 minutes = 2 hours so the family can rent the boat for 2 + 2 = 4 hours Hope this Helps :D
