The price of a canoe rental, in dollars, is calculated by the formula 12h+10, where h is the number of hours, or portion thereof. Explain this formula in English.

Total cost of canoe rental equals 12h + 10. Every hour is multiplied by 12. The assumption is that 12 stands for $12.00 though it could be 12 pesos or 12 hogs. The point is, it is safe to assume that it is the COST PER HOUR. The 10 is assumed to be the baseline cost. In this case, it probably means the cost of renting the canoe itself even if you have it for a theoretical zero number of hours. Again, we will assume that is $10, but you can't tell the units from the formula.
