Question

You plan to go snowboarding. The resort charges $15 an hour in addition to $25 to rent a board. Write an equation that represents the cost to go snowboarding for the day. You have 100.00 to spend that day how many hours can you snowboard?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 Hours

Explanation:

Linear Equation: mx+b=y

x variable: Hour

Hourly Fee: $15(x)

(Initial) Rent Fee: $25

Balance: $100

Equation:

15x+25=100

15x+25-25=100-25 -- Separate the constant terms from the x by subtracting 25 from both sides.

15x=100

15x/15=100/15 -- Isolate the x variable by dividing 15 from both sides.

x=6.6.. -- Round down to 6 (not 7) because you can't afford to snowboard for 7 hours with less than $15.

x=6 Hours
