Question

Raina has 28 cars available to rent. Let C be the number of cars she would have left after renting R  of them.Write an equation relating C to R . Then use this equation to find the number of cars she would have left after renting 26 of them.

Answer 1

If Raina rents R cars out of 28, then the number of cars she would have left is given by:

C = 28 - R

To find the number of cars she would have left after renting 26 of them, we substitute R = 26 in the above equation:

C = 28 - 26 = 2

So Raina would have 2 cars left after renting 26.
