Susie has $95 to spend on renting snorkeling gear at the beach. There is a $15 flat service fee to rent the snorkeling gear along with an $8 charge for each hour the gear is used. The inequality that can be used to find the number of hours Susie can rent the snorkeling gear is 15 + 8h ≤ 95. Calculate the maximum number of hours Susie can rent the snorkeling gear.

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can actually solve this problem simply as if it were an equation instead of an inequality. We have:

15 + 8h ≤ 95

Subtract 15 from both sides:

8h ≤ 95 - 15

8h ≤ 80

Divide by 8 from both sides:

h ≤ 80/8

h ≤ 10

So, the number of hours cannot exceed 10, which means the maximum number of hours Susie can rent is 10 hours.

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
