The cost ofrenting the canoe is S5.25, plus so.50 per hour for the time that the canoe is out. Which cquation could be used to find C, the cost in dollars for using the canoe for H hours?

Answer 1

Hi Elene, the equation is:

 

C = 5.25 + (.50 * H), where H is the number of hours the canoe is rented, and 5.25 is the base cost of the rental without any hours.
