Question

Chang wants to rent a boat and spend at most $44. the boat cost $8 per hour, and chang has a discount coupon for $4 off. what are the possible numbers of hours chain could rent the boat? Use "t" for number of hours .

Answer 1

Answer:

6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's my work.

Chang only wanted to spend $44, and the boat costs $8/hr. So, the variable would only be 8t, and you would put 44 on the other side.

Then, you'd put -4 on the side with 8t, because you can take off $4.

So, the setup would be;

44 = 8t - 4.

Answer 2

8t-4 is less than or equal to 44

t=6
