Jose rented a bike from Chelsa's Bikes. It cost $20 plus $7 per hour. If Jose paid $69, then he rented the bike for how many hours?

Question

I don't know how to put it into a problem. :(

Answer 1

You are given a total cost and rate

Total cost = $69

Rate = $20 + $7 for each hour

Let x = number of hours

20 + 7x = 69

Now just solve for x

Give it a try.
