Answer 1

Answer:

500 + 50x ≤ 700

Step-by-step explanation:

This question’s a bit weird, also the question didn’t ask for the answer, it asks for the inequality >:C

Personally I think this shouldn’t be an ineuality question, but this is the closest we get, this question is bad, whoever wrote it is bad.

So we have to pay 500 for the first 2 hours, but we can pay 50 for more hours right? Yeah. The x represents the amount of half hours (30 mins) we can spend. So yeah that’s the equation, I don’t understand how this should be an inequality lol.

Answer 2

they can rent the boat for 4 hours if they spend 700 dollars.
