Taylor and Morgan would like to spend some time on the river while camping with their family. Taylor wants to rent a two-person kayak. There is a $5 setup fee for kayak rentals and then kayaks are rented at $8 per hour. The setup fee for canoes is $9 and they are rented at $6 per hour. Determine the number of hours it takes for canoe rentals and kayak rentals to cost the same amount.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

After 2 hrs canoe rentals and kayak rentals cost would be same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours be 'x'.

Given:

Set up fee for Kayak rental = $5

Hourly rate for Kayaks rental = $8

Solution:

First we will find the total cost of Kayak rentals.

total cost of Kayak rentals can be calculated by sum of Set up fee for Kayak rental and Hourly rate for Kayaks rental multiplied by number of hours.

framing in equation form we get;

total cost of Kayak rentals = 5+8x

Now Given:

Set up fee for Canoe rental = $9

Hourly rate for Canoe rental = $6

Now we will find the total cost of Canoe rentals.

total cost of Canoe rentals can be calculated by sum of Set up fee for Canoe rental and Hourly rate for Canoe rental multiplied by number of hours.

framing in equation form we get;

total cost of Canoe rentals = 9+6x

Now to find the number of hours when both rentals would cost same we will make both the equation equal we get;

5+8x=9+6x

Combining like terms we get;

8x-6x=9-5\n\n2x=4

Now Dividing both side by 2 we get;

(2x)/(2)=\frac{4}2\n\nx=2\ hrs

Hence After 2 hrs canoe rentals and kayak rentals cost would be same.

Harper has $15.00 to spend at her grocery store. She is going to buy bags of fruit that cost $4.75 each and one box of crackers that costs $3.50. Write and solve an inequality that models this situation and could be used to determine e the maximum number of bags of fruit, (b), Harper can buy.Show your work.

Answers

Answer: The required inequality is,

4.75 b +3.50 ≤ 15.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, b represents the number of bags of fruit bought by her,

Since, the cost of each bag of fruits = $ 4.75,

⇒ The cost of b bags of fruit = 4.75b dollars,

Also, she buy one box of crackers that costs $3.50,

Thus, her total expenditure = 4.75 b + 3.50

According to the question,

Her total expenditure can not exceed to $ 15.00,

⇒  4.75 b + 3.50 ≤ 15.00

Which is the required inequality that is used to determine the maximum number of bags of fruit bought by her.

First write the inequality:    15\leq4.75x +3.50

Then to solve, first subtract 3.50 from both sides to get:

11.50\leq4.75x

Then divide by 4.75 to get 2.42, and since you can't buy .42 of a bag  of fruit, you round down. So your final answer would be 2 bags of fruit.
