Question

A paddle boat company charges $15 rental fee plus $12.75 per hour for rentals. If Jimmy has $45, which inequality can he use to determine if he has enough money to rent a paddle boat for 4 hours?
a. 15 + 12.75x ≤ 45
b. 15 + 12.75x ≥ 45
c. 15x + 12.75 ≤ 45
d. 15x + 12.75 ≥ 45

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

$15 rental fee added to the 12.75 per hour. you have to multiply the 12.75 times the amount of hours rented, which we don't know yet so that's variable x. then he has only $45 to spend so it has to be equal to or less than that.
