For a two day rental at the surf shop it costs $45 to rent a surf board and $60 to rent a paddle board. On a certain weekend the
surf shop rented 44 total surf boards and paddle boards and made $2265. How many paddle boards were rented?
1 answer:
Answer:
19 paddle boards were rented.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rent of a surf board is $45
And the rent of a paddle board is $60
Total of paddle board and surf board rented were 44
let the paddle board rented be x
Hence, surf board rented will be 44-x
According to question we are given that 44 both boards were rented means
On solving the above equation we will get:
Hence, 19 the paddle boards were rented.

Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The equation
Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.
In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.
