Question

4. A group of friends rents a boat to spend an afternoon on a lake. The boat rental has a flat fee of $180 for up to three hours and $50 per hour for each additional hour. The first four passengers are included in this cost, but $20 is charged for each additional passenger. Write a linear equation to describe this situation, where c is the total cost of the rental, h is each additional hour (over 3) and p is each additional passenger (over 4).
options:
A. c = 230h + 20p
B. c + 180 = 50h + 20p
C. c = 180 + h + p
D. c = 180 + 50h + 20p

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the total cost and the boat is 180 but for additional hour it would be +$50

now the first four passenger is free but if another person comes on then it would be +$20 hope this help
