A bike shop rents bikes for $4.50 per hour, plus a $7.50 insurance charge. For how many hours can Peter rent a bike if he has $30?

With $30, Peter can afford 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Insurance Charge = $7.5

Charges = $4.5 per hour

Required

Determine the number of hours $30 can afford

First, we need to determine the equation.

Total Charges = Charges per hour + Insurance Charge

Substitute values for Charges per hour and Insurance Charge

Total Charges = 4.5 per hour + 7.5

Let the number of hours be n;

So,

Total Charges = 4.5n + 7.5

To calculate Peter's; substitute 30 for total charges

Subtract 7.5 from both sides

Divide both sides by 4.5

Hence;

With $30, Peter can afford 5 hours

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
