He mitchell family is renting a boat for the day. the boat rental has a flat fee of $100 plus $20 for each hour. they have to pay for a whole hour even if they are not out on the lake for a whole hour. for example, if they rent the boat for 3 and one-half hours, they have to pay for 4 hours. if they want to spend $250 or less on the boat rental for the day, how many hours can they rent the boat? write an inequality and solve.

They can rent the boat for 7 hours for $ 240 in total.

Since the Mitchell family is renting a boat for the day, and the boat rental has a flat fee of $ 100 plus $ 20 for each hour, and they have to pay for a whole hour even if they are not out on the lake for a whole hour, to determine, if they want to spend $ 250 or less on the boat rental for the day, how many hours can they rent the boat, the following calculation must be performed:

So they can rent the boat for 7 hours for $ 240 in total.

250-100 = 150

150/20 = 7.5

7 hours

inequality: 100+20x <=250

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16

hope i'm right
