Question

Idk men PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

Answer:

Let 7x be the rent paid for backhoe for seven hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keyword: maximum amount, the most

    Inequality symbol:  ≤

     (800 × 5) + 7x ≤ 9,000

     4,000 + 7x ≤ 9,000

     7x ≤ 9,000 - 4,000

     7x ≤ 5,000

     7x ÷ 7  ≤  5,000 ÷ 7

     x ≤ 714.29

To the nearest hundreds:

     x ≤ 700

ANSWER:  The maximum rental fee per hour  of backhoe is Php 700.00 (rounded off to the nearest hundreds).

To check if he paid less than 9,000 for the total rent:

    (800 × 5) + (700 × 7) < 9,000

    4,000 + 4,900 < 9,000

    8,900 < 9,000    (True)
